Finding a local guidance in Orlando, Fl

[Mark Hinton]

Hello Everyone, My name is Mark I live in the Orlando Fl area. I consider myself as a newbie because I still have not done a deal.

I have read many books on real estate. I have spent the past few months on this website listening to podcasts, reading blogs, and browsing the forums. This site has introduced me to a lot of real estate investing opportunities that I was not previously aware of.

My long term strategy is 1st find a mentor, buy and hold. Then put a team together. I am currently looking to learn every aspect of wholesaling so that I can build capital and benefit other investors along the way. I am looking forward to meeting people in the BP community and developing mutually beneficial relationships with other serious investors. This is my birthday gift to myself to find a mentor this month so that I will stay committed.

@Mark Hinton welcome to the Bigger Pockets community. If you aren't already aware out little city has 2 large REIA meeting groups. GoREIA and CFRI. Not sure if you will find a mentor there, however, there are lots of experienced investors to network with, as well as, educational classes and events.
