financing first investment property

[Jaden Griggs]

For a first investment property, with about $25k dedicated to put towards a property, how do most people start out? I'm looking to get my first investment property but the financial part is what is getting me hung up. I'm aware of the seller/creative financing that is available but the light bulb hasn't turned on mentally when I think about how I should finance my first property. I'm consider partnering on the deal and would like any advice on that idea.  I'm living overseas and looking to invest stateside so I am trying to see all the options for financing an investment instead of tying up 20% of my capital through conventional. Thanks in advance.
