I am looking for a mentor in the metro Detroit area
I am currently going to school at Central Michigan University, and am going to major in accounting or finance with a minor in real estate. I am looking into possibly finding a mentor for the summer, sorta like a summer internship. Through podcasts and books, i have gained some knowledge of how real estate works. Nothing beats on the job training though, and that is what i am looking for. I would like to do rental property one day, but i am willing to learn any type of real estate investing. I have some capital to use, but i need guidance so i don't lose the money i saved up my entire life. If you can help get my investing career off the ground, i will help you with yours any way i can for the rest of the summer. If anyone is interested, please message me.
Anyone not in or near Detroit, feel free to give advice on how to find a mentor as well as the qualities they should have?
