If you’re not yet married I would recommend a partnership agreement that spells out your agreed upon exit strategies in the event that things go wrong with the investment or your relationship.

You can meet local investors by registering to attend real estate events in your area: https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/521-events-and-happenings6.

Check out the local events section.Simply select a state, and you’ll often find a leader hosting real estate events in their community.This is how I find my own guests—by connecting with those local communities and bring them as a guest on my own event ..  

The statement that I made was in the event that a system was created to block only non abled bodied people from moving into the property.

The amount of time required to attend court hearings etc. is big.   

A good property manager can handle tenant issues and reduce your hands-on involvement.Building a Network: While you don’t currently have local connections, networking with other investors, attending real estate meetups, or joining online communities can provide valuable insights and opportunities.The next steps depend on your financing options, preferred markets, and whether you’re willing to manage tenants directly or prefer to stay hands-off.

A great way to start is by attending RE events and joining a local investors association.

My partners and I have been running a real estate meetup for the past two years, and you are more than welcome to attend.
