New to Real Estate Investing

[Nicholas Zumwalt]

I live in the PNW (Eugene OR specificall) where it seems that housing is going at above top dollar. I have been educating myself and found that out of state investing may be tee best bet. I'm curious as to where I need to start. I am aware that I need boots on ground and a solid team consisting of: Realtor Contractor Property manager Title officer Escrow officer RE attorney What else should I add to my team and how do I locate a good seller finance deal (I am currently rebuilding my credit and so can't get financed) also how do I go about navigating a Real Estate Offer and present it to an out of state seller? I am looking for a mentor because I am fully aware that this business is Team critical. Any help would be fabulous. Thank you.
