Looking for investors for advice in Houston, TX

[Menal Khan]

Hi everyone, my name is Menal and I live in Houston,TX.  I am very interested and motivated to become an investor. I work full time as well. After finding bigger pockets, I am even more determined to get this goal started. I have been to a few meetups in Houston regarding real estate- real estate acquisitions and the large networking event that takes place at the RedNeck Country Club. I have been to a few seminars as well but I realized ( by researching the forums here) that they ask for a lot of money to offer “ help”. 

I’m a hard worker and no stranger to educating myself which is what I’m currently doing by reading books and listening to podcasts. I’m just wondering if there are any investors in Houston out there who would be willing to offer advice and support? Or where can I go to find one? No one in my social network is an investor and Im wondering if I should get started just by myself? Which I don’t mind doing at all.. but figured I’d ask about help available.
