Getting a Mentor

[Rami Khaldi]

Hey Everyone,

I've begun to lock in on doing a brrrr in the Philadelphia area to reap the rewards of hard money financing and buy/hold. I want to build equity rather than just doing flips. Here and there, i find good deals and they meet the 70% rule. But i truly feel like a need a mentor in REI to help me through the logistics, planning, details.

Any guidance on how others here have identified good mentors? Im not shy or leery to reaching out, just need to find the right person who is open to it. Im also a 9-5 corporate employee not in RE, which is a little more difficult. Eager to start, just need some direction with an experienced person. Thank you to any and all suggestions.

Hey Rami- heres a few thought. A mentor does not have to be a person in your immediate area, mentors can be online, some people even consider authors to books as mentors. I have found most of my mentors through the different networking and mastermind groups Im in which are all online. Join some paid mentorship & mastermind groups. The free ones do not offer as much value in my opinion, you have to pay to play to get the right people and right value.

Im also in Philly if you ever want to connect!
