21 Yrs Old Searching for a Start in Multi-Family Investing
As the title says, I am 21 years old and looking to get my start in multi-family investing. I recently went to a seminar regarding multi-family investing where they attempted to sell a $40,000 mentorship program. I absolutely believe in investing in my education but this class was nothing but a sales funnel to pad the pockets of the owners. I am currently searching for any advice, or people willing to mentor in the Jacksonville, Florida area. I am willing to provide my time, my knowledge, and any leg-work. I have the drive/ determination to succeed in this by myself but am a full believer that your relationships and who you know are much more important than what you know. It just so happens I am brand new so my network in multi-family real estate is slim to none. If anyone is interested, I will happily work my butt off for you, sourcing deals and anything that I can possibly do to get my foot into this door. I have the time to help you grow your business if you have the time to help me learn the ropes and get my foot in the door.

@Dylan Griffis I’ve paid $7,000 & $8,000 for “mentoring” programs both of which have been scams. Save your money for a down payment.
You can read the books in the BP bookstore and watch videos on YouTube and gain enough knowledge to get started and buy a small multi family house 2-4 units to house hack or just rent out and self manage. It’s fairly easy. Start small and learn as you grow.
I have 25 doors and most months spend only 2-3 hours on real estate stuff. It’s been more this month because I’m doing a lot of showings/leasing which is time consuming compared to other things I usually do.
