Hello! New to the real estate investing world here and looking to start with wholesaling. My goals for wholesaling are to 1. Learn the real estate business by taking action, 2. Develop a network of real estate investors/professionals, and 3. Build up the capital to begin the BRRRR strategy to ultimately replace my W2 income with passive income.

About me - I’m an immigrant to the US originally from Australia. I’ve lived in the US for about 9 years, about 7 in St Louis. I have a good W2 job that has significant opportunity but at the cost of increased hours. I’m a new dad with a 9 month old son at home who I want to be able to spend a lot of time with whilst he grows up. Currently in my early 30’s with a strong corporate finance background, but no good network of real estate pros or investors. 

I’m looking for a local mentor who can help me learn the ropes of Wholesaling and help guide me through the process. Does anybody have any good suggestions for who would be a good mentor for me, or where I could find one?

Thanks!
