Seeking Advice on Coaching/Mentor Programs for Real Estate Investing

[Portia Dampier]

Hi BiggerPockets community,

I’m fairly new here and somewhat new to real estate investing. I have every intent to complete my very first fix-and-flip project in 2025!
As I look to grow, I’m considering joining a coaching/mentorship program like Partner Driven or something similar. These programs often assert to guide you step-by-step through the process, provide assistance with funding, and connect you with contractors. However, they also come with a significant upfront investment.

Before I commit to anything, I’d love to hear from those with experience:

Are these programs worth the investment?

Have you found them to be genuinely helpful in advancing your real estate goals?

Are there other, more cost-effective alternatives to gain similar support and knowledge?

Any insights, advice, or personal experiences would be greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance for helping me navigate this decision.
