Experienced investor seeking other experienced investors for mutual peer mentorship

[Allen Tackett]

Greetings fellow investors,

I'm finding that the more experienced I get, and the larger my portfolio gets, I don't really have a good network of experienced investors to reach out to to exchange ideas and take things to the next level.  I'd be happy to share my thoughts and am looking for other folks who might be available once in an awhile for a quick phone call or email exchange.  Here's specifically what I'm looking for, and my core strengths:

Seeking

- Investors who owns multiple properties and have a few years of experience.  

 - Anyone who can help me expand beyond buy and hold long term rentals and see new opportunities in real estate

 - Anyone who can help me with deal flow (find new specific deals in a time-efficient way)

- Anyone with a net worth of significance who has thought hard about trusts, LLCs and taxes

Offering

- I own a portfolio of 10+ properties (all long term buy and hold) in several different markets, with a focus on passive cash flow. I usually buy 1-3 properties a year. SFH, TH and some duplexes.

- I have been doing this for 20 years

- I have other assets (equities etc.) and view investing through this lens: what's the best asset class right now and how do I want to balance and diversify my overall financial portfolio?  I previously owned a chain of coffee shops and have some experience buying and selling small businesses.  

- I'm happy to share some leads on specific properties that would be good investments, but I choose not to pursue for a variety of reasons.

Lastly, for all of the newer investors (or aspiring investors).  I'm almost always happy to give someone 15 minutes if you'd like to chat or get advice.  Just send me a DM.  I think it's important to give back to the community, and I probably could use some reverse mentoring as well.  I am not an agent and I don't have anything to sell so no agenda here if you reach out.

@Allen Tackett

can you go to a REIA meeting (or several), and form a subgroup with the type you're looking for? That would seem to me to be your best bet.

I have found myself in the same place - I consider myself an intermediate investor (7 properties in 3 markets) - and it seems like I encounter either a lot of brand new investors, or folks who own hundreds.

your background sounds really interesting, where are you located?
