Real estate investor's assistant without knowing them in person

[Nicholas Tanner]

Is there anyway to work for a real estate investor in your area or at least close by if you have absolutely no experience and don't already know them personally? I figured I could get started in real estate by being an assistant and I would learn from them but I don't really know any investors. Is there a website or something for that, and could one possibly even be an assistant from his home computer after he gets off of work?
