Just trying to learn quickly and be effective and efficient with my time, money, and resources. 

Nevertheless, out of state investing is all about having a resourceful team to work with that will bring you solid opportunities.

I am looking for resources that provide an outline of the steps required to go through this process. 

There are also good resources on the website for you to reference such as blog posts etc. 

There are so many resources within to prepare you properly for RE investing. 

There is a handy search bar in the upper right that makes it easy to find previous discussions, blogs, podcasts, and other resources.

Any help or resources greatly appreciated!

Your best resource will be to contact buyers and see which title companies they use.

More context on your risk tolerance, resources and overall goals would help make a decision though. 

I have read that some investors purchase in their personal names and then move the property title into an LLC but also that this could cause issues.I imagine that I am not the only person who has dealt with this issue before so I am wondering if anyone has advice or resources they can point me to on how to best structure a deal where one partner will be providing the down payment and closing costs and the other will be obtaining the mortgage and managing the property.Thanks in advance.Dave
