I'm a licensed architect just starting in real estate investment

[Josh Abbey]

I'd like to purchase my first property and get the process started. I'm a newbie with a good grasp on the investment process but am a little discouraged with what's availabe in my immediate area of Denver. I'm interested in investing and have a small chunk of cash for a down payment but don't know where to look outside of Denver. I'm very familiar with home design, construction, and navigating zoning and building permitting challenges (if that helps!). Looking to build a team!
