real estate investor/entrpreneur

my name is Brett Jeffries and I am 25 years old. I am from Philadelphia, Pa born and raised. I am looking at getting into Real Estate Investing because there are a lot of people out there who are in financial trouble and are either about to loose their home or have lost their home and are now looking for a place. I am getting into the investing side because I feel that I can help people out of their current situations and put a smile on their face and make whatever their going through a little easier and easier to handle. I have worked in sales since I was 15 years old. I am a people person and I love making people happy and putting a smile on their face... I am a little nervous but hopefully with some encouragement the process will be easier and smooth for me.
