New here! Would like some guidance

[Joshua Tan]

Hi,

I am a motivated brand new investor (and home buyer for that matter), but have been around RE investor friends & family for years. I am in California, but I'm interested in out-of-state properties - parts of the Midwest/Southeast mainly. I'd love to pick the brain of a passionate and seasoned investor! I've been doing much of my own due diligence and research, but I can only do so much before wanting to hear some personal testimony.

I have some questions regarding contacts and process - lenders, "RE friendly" agents, inspections, etc. The whole gamut!

Who would be open to a conversation? I appreciate any and all bits of advice.
