Just a thought on finding a Mentor

I see so many posts on here from people asking for someone to mentor them, saying either they will work for free for the mentor or offering nothing at all.

It seems to me you will be more likely to find a mentor if you have enough money to close a deal on your own, and offer possibly offer the mentor 10% of the deal profits and none of the losses

In addition, know what you want to do "Realistically", such as Flip or Buy and Hold, etc....That way you provide value to the mentor.

Good Luck!

Bravo.  I've been noticing the same trend.  Great idea.  I'd also recommend attending [more] local events, reaching out to local BP members to meet up.
