I am wondering if my first steps (past the education part) is to build a network of people who know, like, and trust me through posting content like newsletters, articles, podcasts, doing webinars, going to events (aka build my brand), or, should I first find a deal and then raise capital?

There are plenty other resources but the first is to educate

The city’s diverse economy, which spans transportation, healthcare, and education, provides a solid foundation for long-term growth.

Hotels and hospitality are a super interesting sector to me.

I am reading a bunch of real estate investing books , talking to realtors & loan officers, and trying to educate myself best I can.I'm also looking to expand my network within the real estate investing community, and I believe this is a great opportunity to connect.
