New Real Estate Investor Intro!
Hello everyone!
I am just starting out my real estate investing journey and wanted to introduce myself. I've been doing quite a bit of research over the last couple weeks and have decided on an area I think has great potential for my first purchase :) I'm not really sure where to go from there, if I need to looking into pre-approvals, find a lender.. or whatever else might be the next step! From what I've seen I should not open a LLC or trust at this point since it would be my first property and it would be out of the state I live in. So that brings up another point of having to do everything remote.
Any advice or help at all would be greatly appreciated and anything you wish you would have know before getting started would be helpful info as well!
Looking forward to connecting and meeting more like minded people!
