Mentor/Partnor
Hello fellow investors,
My intention with this post is not to find someone to offer all of their expertise for nothing in return. It's actually just the opposite. I'm hoping to develop a mutually beneficial relationship in which we are both successful.
I'm located in PA just north of Philadelphia. A local or semi-local mentor would be ideal but I'm open to someone not so local as well. As you may have guessed I'm new to the real estate investing world. For the past 8-9 months or so I've been reading and learning all that I can. I even closed on 1 lease option deal. Made myself a cool $5K doing so!
I'm slowly developing a passion for this business. With that being said I'm looking for an experienced investor who is willing to share their knowledge, time, and experience to help fast track me into the world of real estate investing in return for something of equal value in their eyes. I thought I found someone willing to work with but quickly found out they were so busy with their business that they didn't have time to work with me. They never answered their phone and returned calls several days later, if at all. By the way this person was not a BP member. My real estate investing interests are broad. I'm interested in lease option, rehab, wholesale, and building a rental portfolio.
I'm looking for someone who has their business up and running like a well oiled machine. Someone who is willing to dedicate some time and be a coach. This is not a SFN (something for nothing) type of deal. I'm willing to discuss how we can be of benefit to one another. We could partner on deals, I could work in your business, trade knowledge of other topics, or some other professional barter form. I have over 12yrs experience in the fitness industry and can help most anyone looking to better their health, diets, workouts, etc. I also have a small glass etching hobby. You can view some of my work at jbarberdesigns.com.
I've worked in sales for over 15yrs. I'm not shy to call random people, knock on strangers doors, filter through sheriff sale lists, spend my entire evenings and weekends dedicating my time to this, or any of the other work most people are scared to or won't do. I'm a fast learner and a complete sponge on the real estate investing topic.
I have an established LLC, business cards, a moderate marketing plan, we buy houses signs, general understanding of most investing strategies, and a ton of drive! Whether you're a long time seasoned investor looking to pass on and create a legacy or simply a novas looking to partner on deals or barter for knowledge or work please feel free to reach out to me. I'm very flexible and open to all offers to build a win-win business in which we are both successful and benefit from.
