chicagoland - mentoring in exchance for tech help?

[Bob S.]

looking to partner with a mentor who can help us start our journey in chicagoland. looking to start likely with turnkey rentals - SFH or MF. want to know how to finance and how to find "good deals" on properties outside of redfin/zillow/the obvious candidates.

i'm a tech specialist with over 20 years in the field of database administration. i could help with infrastructure, websites, etc... in return for your help with initial and possibly ongoing mentorship/partnership with getting started!

thanks! please let me know if this is in the wrong forum :(
