My 1st potential deal!

Hi All!

So about a month ago I attended my first REIA meeting and made some solid connections. One was with an investor who looks for 5+ bedroom SFH's for purchase. I believe I found my first property fitting his criteria tomorrow but I'm not really sure how to proceed. So far I've only reached out to seller and asked if we could set up a time to see the property. It's priced at under 27k and advertised as "needs remodeling". My questions are, should i be looking for a contractor to go with me? Should i risk just asking the buying to go and maybe not making as much but learning as I go? Also where is a solid contract I can find in case I do lock it down tomorrow?

Thanks everyone in advance for any advice!! Hopefully my first deal is right around the corner! :)
