If this is your first venture, your presence at the property will be very important, there is a learning curve, factor in your travel time and other commitments.

Quote from @Paul T.: Thanks to OP for this post!

It’s such a big leap of trust, and unfortunately, there are agents who don’t always live up to what you need in this process.An out-of-state investment can be daunting, and it’s so important to have someone in your corner who truly understands your financial goals and is committed to building a relationship beyond just getting to the closing table.

I came across this forum as I have recently been made aware of an identity fraud committed under my name and my company’s name.Further to the above discussion, I would like to provide you with the following facts and comments:1. 

Yeah Uncle Sammy said it's now T-town and that a dog-scat deal so to kick-rocks. 

That is a big move, and I wish you all the best @Maxwell Silva on your journey.In terms of a BIO, I would absolutely use your experience in the healthcare field as no doubt you probably contain the following skills:Patience - Working at the level the client requires (whether first time home buyer or experienced investor)Detail Oriented - Ensuring that every important detail is accounted forPeople Person - Putting the needs of others firstGood team player - Good at coordinating and working with a team (title co, lender, other Realtors, etc)Dedicated - Committed to meeting deadlines, and helping people accomplish their RE goalsThese should get you started. 

IME (in my experience), you would charge a fee (say 50-100 basis points) to the banks/investors, often times based on the either the commitments or the outstanding balance of the fund. 

Brokers, lenders, and investors must work together with mutual respect and a shared commitment to ethical practices.

They tried to gaslight me rather than committing to doing better.

In the current environment, it might make sense to rent for a year or two before you commit to a purchase.
