having trouble finding the $$$ part of investments

[Eli Kalen]

what's the best way to go about finding $$$ for a long distance real estate investment? I understand that providing a finacial opportunity/deal is the number one way to find money for a deal. I've been feeling like I need to find somebody willing to give money before I find a deal. Is this the wrong way to go about it? If your actively taking part in the financial side of investment and willing to talk to me about what your expectations are please post here or DM me.
