'New Kid on the Scene🧐' : How do I impress my new mentor?

I have a commercial and property management internship under my belt. I have my plumbers license. I have verbal commitment from an investor to back my first RE deal.

I made this new connection this summer with the investor who is doing exactly what I want to do. I asked for this man to take my under his wing this winter and teach me all that he can.

He has two in-house renovation teams that I will work with. As well as taking me along to analyze properties and showing me how his spreadsheets work.

To all you Residential investors and hard money lenders: What would impress you most to see from a young, scrappy, and hungry individual? Certain books, certain websites, certain habits, certain licenses, certain friends, certain shows? Anything will help! Thanks in advance!

@Robert Lolofie learn about what his ideal investment property is and find him one. 

And use BP calculators to build out a report on some potential properties he's looking at (ask for the properties he's pursuing or currently working with, run the numbers and share / compare what you found vs his numbers). 

The most baller move though would be bringing him a deal that works for what he does.

Mentioned on the Podcast before - you need 2 out of these 3 things to be successful in real estate - knowledge, hustle, and capital. Demonstrate your hustle and build your knowledge... And capital will come!
