So I found a property I think has potential

My goal is to purchase my first Buy and Hold property. I found a property that needs a little work, most of which I can handle myself, some not.

So.....IF I were to take the next step, should I be going about this the same way I did when I bought the house I live in?

I know this may sound like a dumb question, but I guess I should find a real estate agent and mortgage broker? Should I just go into my bank and ask for a loan?

The only reason I ask is because this dosen't fall under the category of a property I would be occupying....so.....thats why I ask.

Thanks.
