Off market deal for a first time investor

Hello Everyone!

I found an off market deal locally which I am in process of analyzing. 

What should be the approach should I choose to move forward? Should I get an attorney since there won't be a RE agent involved? What is a normal process of buying a property directly through the owner with no external agent/agency involved? What are some of the common mistakes/overlooks I should be mindful of?

I'd appreciate any insight. Thank you!
