one tip i've heard from a few master BH's out there is to max out investigation xp before u go get trained.
what this means is say u have enough investigation xp to get investigation1, dont run over the BH trainer and get investigation1 right away. keep doing bh missions until u get the message saying you can no longer gain any more investigation xp, THEN go to a trainer to get investigation1 trained. when u get inestigation1 you'll have a good start on ivestigation2 already.
the reason for this is the BH missions get harder and harder as u move up the investigation tree - ya i know all missions get harder as u progress in ur skills, but from what i hear BH missions make big jumps in difficulty and the higher lvl missions can have u running all over the galaxy for days on end to find ur mark. so why not get as much easy xp as possible and not run all over the galaxy? from what im told this way is actually faster to complete the investigation tree.

i started investigation 1 last nite. i got like 2k investigation xp in no time. with BH 0/4/4/4 and some nice buffs (2400+) it was a piece of cake. heres what i did:
Getting a mission- i went to keren, naboo. there is a BH mission terminal, BH trainer, and a SpyNetOp real close to the Keren shuttleport (in the travel maps it just plain "keren shuttleport"). the terminals and trainer are located just up the stairs from the shuttleport. the bh mission terminals will give missions with difficulty levels from 5 to 31, at least for me. to get the most difficult missions (and the most xp) equip your best weapon, for me it was the LLC. mission rewards were about 7k. all the missions i've done so far have stayed on naboo.
Getting the Waypoint- after getting ur mission go down stairs and to the right, next to that building is a SpyNetOp. converse with him and he will give u a waypoint. after u get ur wp check ur planetary map to find the nearest shuttleport to ur mark. hop the shuttle and follow the wp to ur mark.
Killing the mark- i used a laser carbine to take down most marks. using knockdownfire, confusion shot, and spamming fullautosingle took care of most of them without letting them even get a shot off. i also used my scatter pistol with bleedingshot and torso shot, took some hits but nothing a stimB or 2 couldnt take care of. marks gave about 3k weapons xp each.
