If you are searching for offmarket, you can network with local wholesalers, and also use something like dealmachine to generate leads.

Found this property through our local online foreclosure auction site.

One buddy of mine split his time between local flips in Greensboro and buy-and-hold single-families in Memphis.

I recommend reviewing your local laws to understand the requirements involved.

You're best bet is to call a few brokers local to the area and see what they can come up with.It's definitely going to be a surplus or excess carrier that will do it and the premiums will be high. 

And the best way to start networking is here on BP and attending your local REIA meetings IMO.

I would vet contractors by finding local real estate agents that also work with investors, and/or a rehab investor in your area that does a lot of deals.

Local product is cheap since no import tariff.  

Hi Brian, not sure how close you are to NH but there’s a couple local meetups that happen every month in The NH seacoast area just across the Maine border if that is something that interest you. 

In my experience, a property with multiple cottages and outbuildings can provide all kinds of creative strategies...some folks try short-term rentals or even specialized retreats if local regulations allow.
