Hi, I'm the facilitator of the Sussex County DelREIA meeting, and an active investor and mentor in Sussex, and throughout Delmarva. Would like to connect with other active Delaware investors!

Post: $20-50k for a mentor?

This is a hot button for me... I made that costly mistake. Don't do it, no matter how good they make it sound. I agree with those that chimed in before me that you could have made better use of that money, albeit put on a credit card. 

However, what I would suggest is that you find a LOCAL mentor, perhaps through a reasonably priced REIA coaching program, and be willing to put some skin in the game, with some money up front for the coaching/mentoring program, and money for effective marketing.

Since I learned from my negative experiences of paying well over $50k when starting out (BAD IDEA!!!), I decided that I would offer a FREE course to new investors so to save them that up front expense, but yet to offer to teach/guide/mentor them the knowledge and skills, and the arrangement would be a equal profit split. Oh, I also offer FREE transactional funding, free access to my buyers list, free access to my network and systems, free documents, free, free, free. ....  I would have jumped at this opportunity when I was a newbie. At least that's what I thought.

Well, let me share that experience..... People loved the free education and free everything else (of course).  Some people complained about doing profit splits, so went out on their own after their free 6 week program, and then wanted to come back and rejoin because they made some costly mistakes and/or needed ongoing support. Others after 2 years in a free program never did a deal, never did marketing, never made an offer, and never really did much of anything except passively received information.  So as a mentor, how was I compensated for my time and energy if there were no deals done to profit split? You can figure it out.

Bottom line, if you want a mentor that will get you faster results, be willing to pay; however, make sure it is reasonable.  Don't waste their time, and don't waste your money. But if (1) all the free avenues of education are not working for you, ie BP podcasts, books, webinars, networking, conferences, etc, and(2) the free methods of obtaining leads are not working ie DfD, craigslist, zillow, etc, and (3) you can't figure out what you are missing in your overall strategies for making deals, then it is time to look for an experienced LOCAL coach.  Don't discount profit shares, because 50% of something is better than 100% of zero. And ya gotta have some skin in the game.

ATTENTION INVESTORS: I'm selling my interests in thisIn Town Charmer! Fantastic 2 bedroom, 1 bath Colonial home. Great location in Laurel and priced to sell. Just Screaming "HELP!" but a great deal no matter how you look at it. It can be rehabbed for what is there or expand the size, or just tear it down and start over with your best selling home. There's lots of room to expand on this 0.32 acre property that backs up to the Broad Creek. No impact fees! City water and sewer. Where else can you pay $242 a year for property taxes? This old beauty is just waiting for your professional skills and creative touch to bring her back to life. Cash and quick close.
