Looking for a Mentor in Dallas, Texas

[Cory Dean]

How's it going everyone?

Let me start out by saying that I am very new to real estate, I have been a member of BiggerPockets for about a week and I am planning on attending the BiggerPockets meetup in Irving this month.

So, I have been listening to the podcasts like crazy and they are crammed full of great advice it's unreal. I feel like there is a huge disconnect when listening to these, however, as I have never been a part of the process of buying a house.

How unheard of is it for an experienced investor to mentor a new investor, or let a new investor "shadow" them on a real estate deal, to show them how the whole process flows?
