Looking for possible mentor or someone to shadow for a bit.

Hello Everyone,

Living in North East Florida, in the Jacksonville area, and I am interested in finding someone who would let me shadow them on a couple of deals or to just let me pick their brain a bit. I'd be more than happy to buy them a drink or two just for that opportunity. If you're willing to help, please feel free to respond. Thanks in advance everyone!!

@Aaron Staley

You can attend the local REIA, but leave your wallet at home. I have yet to attend a REIA event where someone did not want money in exchange for something else. That is the beauty of Bigger Pockets. You don't need to go to the REIA, most are dying off as a result of a bad model (Psssst, they make money off the members buying the latest "guru's" Get Rich Quick Scheme). Best for you to learn at BP, listen to the FREE, did I say FREE audio they feature and put in a search for "Jacksonville" anytime someone posts something about our great city, you will be notified. I do not have the time with my current stuff going on, but I can help in an email, if you need something.

Not a big fan of the REIA model, it preys on the weak, who are looking for information, thinking that the local REIA MUST be where all the successful investors are located. Sometimes. Not always.

Best of luck to you!
