Buying my first property out of state as a server

[Abriauna Garcia]

Hi! I am trying to buy my first live in property by mid may in Arizona. I currently live in Colorado and I have run into a huge obstacle preventing me from being approved to buy out of state. I have a great credit score and a good amount of money saved. My only problem is that I am a server and make a tipped wage. I’m having a hard time finding a 55k+ salary job. I have an associates in human services but I am wanting/ willing to get experience where I can learn more of the ins and outs of real estate whether it be loans, property managment, etc. I am very open and eager. I’m also open to any schooling required to be considered for a specific role. An ideal world for me would be to find a salary or hourly full time position with minimum 55k a year in Arizona so I can learn and also make enough to get approved to buy my first property that I later want to rent out and hold long term. I guess I am looking for some advice or guidance on where to start!! Thanks so much in advance
