Out of State Newbie

Hi folks my name is Jose I'm from Whittier CA and I'm kind of scared to jump into buying real estate in Kansas city  but if not now, when ? I want to start taking action, even if those steps are small. here are the facts, I've read the books,  analyzed about 80 deals in my preferred area, I've listened to a handful of podcasts, and read a basic purchase and sales agreement about 5 times. 

I have 15k and a partner willing to give me 5k for a deal. also have a credit line of 8k just incase. 

my price range is 75k to 85k in these area codes 64128 and 64130 they seem to be in a C class neighborhood,

I want to connect with people who have similar goals and anyone who is willing to listen.

    Hey Jose - local agent & investor here in KC! You are in the best place to get started and you are correct, best time to start is now! I personally own a rental in 64130 & have done several transactions in 64128 - they are indeed C class areas but that is where some serious cash flow can be made! In order to pull it off, you need a solid property manager since you are in Cali. I work with several out of state investors to do the same thing. Lets chat!
