Trying to get my feet wet

[Tony Sessa]

Hi my name is Tony I'm from Rochester my and I work for CSX (railroad) as a welder doing maintenance on the tracks, it's a good job with great benefits so I really don't want to quit my job but I'm looking for a side business. I'm not sure if real estate is for me but before I jump in head first I would like to know some feed back about the matter. I don't know what I'm getting into so I'm hoping I can get some help from you. Do I buy to flip? Do I buy and hold? I'm looking forward hearing from you
