Getting Started / Setting up a Team

From everyone's experience did you build a team first before starting to work on deals or go directly to deals and figure out the teams after. By teams I am referring to - did you find a CPA, Lawyer, set up an official business (LLC, Corp, etc), contact an agent, contractors... all the above. Considering doing a mentorship program from a few connections I have made at this point on here, but looking ahead into a few of these other things as well. Any advice greatly appreciated!

@Rich Bales

I personally like to identify an area to invest and then build up the team before finding a property. You can also establish your teams while hunting for deals. Start off by finding a great agent. They usually will be able to suggest good contractors, property managers etc. You will trust but verify and do your own due diligence. The CPA, lawyer and LLC are not as urgent and can wait until you start building up your portfolio.
