Real Estate Investing Mentors
I am looking to acquire my first multi-family property and I have been looking for a mentor. So far it looks like a hefty price in finding one. As I am researching and understanding the process, I will of course have questions. I am not sure if its worth paying for advice or mentoring. Can anyone share their stories on how they found their mentors? Thanks!

@Taneisha Phillips How exciting that you’re looking into buying your first multifamily property!
For a small multifamily that you’re buying on your own, I think you’ll be able to find plenty of free resources here and elsewhere to help you get the deal done.
And, if you find the right team (realtor, property manager, CPA, etc.), they can help provide any information or answer any questions you may have. That’s how I got my first house hack done years ago, before BP was around, by leaning on the experience and wisdom of my realtor, who had house hacking experience.
I also agree with @Shafi Noss that paid mentorships are most valuable after you have some experience under your belt and want to get to the more advanced and nuanced stages.
Good luck!
