Newbie - Steps to get first home for Fix & Flip

[Hector Beltran]

Hello, I am new to RE Investing and had questions about the steps on how to buy my first fix and flip. My question is, what would be the first steps after I find someone who is willing to sell. Make and offer to them and if they accept then what? Do I make an offer without having financing in place or after having financing like a hard money lender loan? Do I make the offer and then seek financing? Also, do I get a realtor involve? If not, where do I find the contracts myself? I am sorry if this is a lot just seeking help. You can also let me know where I could find this answers if you would like to save time on replying if you like. Thank you in advance.
