Finding a mentor...what worked for you?

[Christopher Smith]

I’m just getting started on my real estate investment journey and looking to crowd source tips and tricks from those who have walked the path before me.

How did you find and connect with non-organic mentors?

What worked well for you while getting started and building your network of real estate professionals (lawyers, agents, etc.) and what are some of the pitfalls to avoid?

Thanks!

Here is what you have to do,

Real Estate is extremely hard business.

In Real Estate, we suggest people go slowly to protect you. It takes Years in Real Estate to become a successful Investor. Even learn every day with new things when you work on a property.

My suggestion is to get educated by an experienced mentor or educator before you start on the ground.

This what we suggest to all of our clients.

There are many people who will do a yellow letter, billboard or things like that. Those are not as productive as to dominate the market and increase your portfolio.

I was on the same ground 6 years ago where you are at now.

All are a waste of money. I did expense thousand of dollars on the various platforms to get trained. But nothing was that effective as I find it right now.

Better is to find someone who saw the two parts of the coins closely for a long time.

Oftentimes in Real Estate people will tell you "the more money you spend, the more money you can make". This is not true. There are people who provide free education.

The more education you will have the more chance of being successful in Real Estate.

We will be in touch very soon.
