Looking to connect with a Mentor.
Hello Everyone.
I started my journey into real estate 9 months ago and its been a wild ride, from learning and taking action. I currently had a deal fall through on me me weeks ago. I got discourage but I'm determined to get to my first deal. I am a new dad and husband and juggling family life, work life and investing it stretches my energy drastically. I am an Engineer by day dad by night and a wholesaler in between time and I feel as if I need a mentor due to the fact that my daily life is so booked I would need someone who could help me stay on the right track. I am ambitious determined and self-driven and willing to work hard towards financial freedom.
I have been trying to do wholesaling for free due to my financial resources being stretched to a point that I have to do wholesaling on a budget until I get my first deal closed. I do understand that everyone's time is precious and I would hate to waste anyone's time and I am willing to put in the work and come to a compromise with whoever would like to take me under their wing.
I am originally from the Bahamas and would like to get into the market down there in terms of timeshares and vacation homes and I would love to find someone who would be interested in investing in the Bahamas as well.
My only support that I have currently is myself as my wife thinks the structure of this type of investing is unethical. So, I try to push myself everyday not to quit and become another statistic of people who failed at real estate investing; I HATE TO LOSE.
Also, if I could be of value to anyone else on this form please feel free to reach out to me, I love to help people and share my knowledge.
All the best to everyone in their endeavors.
-Sidney

Your story is the same as my brotha, I started around the same time if you haven't already I would attend the COREE group meetings I would actually join them you might find a mentor there. I would also attend Columbus Deal Maker Sessions you could meet someone there also. Keep pushing and working through it man I have a newborn also and things wont be easy but we gotta keep pushing for our family. I'll share whatever knowledge I have acquired so far I've close 2 deals so I have that under my belt at least, if that even mean anything.
