Consider spending some time in these areas to get a feel for the market and see if you'd enjoy living there. you ever dealt with ground up non owner occupied construction loans? 

However, I have noticed I don't really enjoy the finding deals part.

Being that I'm so new in the field, I am trying to think outside the box to find this type of buyer.

@Danny RandolphYeah, I’m currently in the construction field and we usually get a 20-40% deposit, then get draws after certain stages/inspections have been passed

Unlike you, I've read multiple self development books but different fields.

I'm eager to gain hands-on experience and mentorship in this field.

I’m hoping to establish a reliable stream of unearned income through real estate investments, but I’m new to the field and looking for guidance.I have around $35,000 saved (excluding stock investments) and would love to connect with someone who can help me navigate this world.

I’ve been told that you just have to be persistent even to the point where it’s annoying to get noticed, even had one guy tell me that he would go around telling a real estate brokers or other people in the field that he would work for them for free.

Enjoyed my time there and love the country.

You also get holidays and weekends while all of your other friends and family enjoy their time relaxing.
