Steps to buying potential first property

[Amir Judge]

I just got word that a friend of the family wants to sell her 3 bedroom 1 bath home in Tampa for $25,000. I haven't looked into the house much and don't currently have any real estate experience. I have a pretty good credit score and student loans are my biggest source of debt. What would be some of my best financial options for purchasing the house in a timely fashion if this proves to be a great deal?
