New to the game...

[Jonny Morris]

Dear all, 

I am curious. 

Moving from London to Bozeman, Montana I anticipate having the capital from the sale of my London, UK property in the next few months. I am excited to see how far that will go in terms of investments out here. 

My question is: what should my next steps be as a new investor to the area and the game? The nature of this seems to be finding deals before other local investors? I am unsure as to why other locals would assist with a deal? Would love to connect with some experienced people who have time/interest to share a few tips?

I have minimal experience with rentals - my property in London was not my residence and was a great investment/rental.
