Hello, My name is Jacob and I am new to the entire real estate business. I have spent the last couple weeks watching videos, listening to podcasts and reading forums about real estate. It seams that many people start off with whole-sales, and that is my plan. How-ever, I still need someone in the area to point me in the right direction. If this is the incorrect forum to post this in, I apologize, and will refrain from posting.
I know that having a mentor is a give AND take relationship, and have no problem splitting any deals that I complete with my mentor. I want to start making moves and hit the ground running. I am young, smart, and willing to work hard. The process I understand, of 'driving for money' to bandit signs (which are completely illegal here) but would still like a kick in the rear to get me going.
Is there anyone in the area who could use a future whole-seller? Investor, whole-seller, flipper or landlord, anyone who could teach me the business would be my first call when I do get a good deal one day in the future.
