Questions for a Mentor?

[Davis Chem]

I am seeing someone who has a lot more experience than me soon and I want to pick their brain to see how they view real estate, but when I think about questions I could ask them, I find it hard to come up with anything.

Are there any questions that you suggest I ask them?

I agree with the above. I also think asking about how to create deal flow is of course and important conversation to have with someone who is where you would like to be. It's helpful when talking with a mention to have specific questions to guide the conversation, however I like the above mentioned question - another way to ask it could be, "What would you be doing if you could go back in time to when you first started out?"

It would also be helpful to know how they spend their days within real estate. A question such as "What does your daily routine look like?" might be helpful. Although if they don't spend too much time in real estate it might not be too relevant.
