Need a mentor

[Butch Greene]

I have a friend who owns tons of properties, but he's too busy to help me constantly try to find a property in Chapel Hill to buy for my daughter to house hack.  
And...I don't have the money right now to buy the "PRO" account, so I can't use the rent cost estimator.
So...yeah...I feel like a random guy who has listened to over a dozen of the Bigger Pockets podcasts and YouTube videos, tried to read anything of value on the forums and nothing.
I need steps A, B, C & D.  

Right now...my ability is to look at crap online and know nothing about what to do with it because the only thing anyone ever says is "If the math works..."  but I don't have access to the tools.
