How to approach a possible mentor?

[Monique Williamson]

I've been looking for a mentor and I recently met a man who rehabs a lot of properties (about one a month). He has two 4 plexs that he hates managing. One of which has 2 empty apartments. I want to act as his property manager. I could take a headache off his hands and get some experience. I'm sure with a bit of effort it won't be hard getting new tenants, it's in a good area, with a small college nearby. The properties is a ways out of town and he doesn't really have the time to bother with it. He also expressed interest in selling them. He doesn't have a mortgage so he may be open to a seller financing option as well. Eventually I want to use the BRRR strategy and thought this would be a win for us both. Any advice on how to approach him? I've only met him once in a group capacity. However, we do have a mutual colleague which is how I plan to get his number. Any advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks!
