@Andrew ThomasSorry you I was shift my focus from purchasing my personal residence to purchasing my first investment property as a realtor you should have access to a program called realist you can easily go in there and search for out-of-state or out of County owners one of the best ways to Market is handwritten envelopes it is almost a guaranteed open versus any other kind of marketing realist has so much information how long people have owned the property with their mortgages Etc I would also try to find as many wholesalers as possible and sign up for their list and look at how they are packaging their properties you will need to go and join some investment clubs a national Club you could potentially join is called Lifestyles Unlimited I'm sure the information they teach is also available on Bigger Pockets at the end of the day if you have a great deal you will always be able to find an investor for it

@Don McAlpine Are you talking about the package https://tedthomas.com/workshopdeal/ which includes weekly call with coaches,  daily 30 minute facilitator calls and magic map (interactive)?

I just received a package of documents from a lawyer I hired.

I was quoted about $6k to $10k depending on what what products/packages that included what I was looking for.
