Newbie from Connecticut - Hello

Hello everyone... I've recently started to become interested in Real Estate investing - specifically flipping houses or purchasing rentals.  I'm a professional working for a large company, but recently realized that while I make a nice living, it wasn't going to get me whee I wanted to go (ie, a warm golf course in my 60s) so I need to start building some wealth.  I have a realtor friend who flips and invests and I talked with him about some options, and then started doing research on the almightly web.  Here I am.  I look forward to meeting many of you.

I'm interested in finding one or two deals a year.  Small homes that need renovations that I can perform myself, or with the help of a few contractors.  Not looking to hit home runs - looking for singles and doubles that can build over time.  

I hope to hear from you all, and please drop me a line with any initial advice.  Thanks!  steve
