Looking for a Mentor
I have been working as a realtor for over a year and my main goal has been to get more active with investing and to find a mentor in this area of real estate investing. Do you know an active real estate investor who would be willing to take on a protégée.

Best thing you could do as a realtor, speaking from experience, join an office where there is someone doing what you want to do. Then do everything in your power to partner with this person in the fashion of working as co-operating agents. Example, say they got a rental - get out and rent it for them. Say they got a listing, move that product. This will cause more interaction and more FaceTime. Plus, you'll see what kind of properties the person owns and buys and why. By renting their product, you'll also understand how they run their business, manage, etc. by the way, this agent should also be a real estate investor and Own units.
