New Investor to Portland Maine area

[Tyler Howie]

I'm a brand new investor looking to get into a buy and hold property in or near the Portland Maine area, but I don't have much capital yet. How would you suggest getting started near that area without being able to qualify for a 300k plus mortgage. Is there anywhere near by that I can get a buy and hold deal for more toward 150k or do I need to find another way to build more capital first?
