Thank you, Brandon! That really helps. If I may ask, what do you attribute a mastermind offering to your growth as an investor? Is it clear goal setting and accountability or something more?
Thank you again for taking the time to offer your insights. I genuinely appreciate them.

Hi everyone :)
I'm just getting started and I'm curious to know your thoughts on where to invest a few hundred dollars.
My local REI group costs $329 for the year and affords me the opportunity to attend local events, classes, and network. A pro membership at BP also provides a lot of valuable education and I would really like to attend the Bootcamp with Ashley which would cost $489 for both.
Torn between the two as far as best next steps to take as a beginner. If you were starting over today, which would you pursue?
Thanks in advance!

Thank you so much, Kerry! I really appreciate that advice. I’ve attended one AZREIA meeting event so far and I plan on making it a habit.
Did you establish yourself as an LLC before your first purchase or did that come later? If you were starting over again today, would you do anything different?
Thank you again for your time!

Thanks so much, Chad! I really appreciate your very thoughtful reply and advice. I’ve definitely got the obsession part down and I’m consuming as much information/education as possible. Bigger Pockets has been huge in my learning thus far thanks to their podcasts and forums like this one.
I’m filling in any spare minute I have with building the foundation you mentioned. If there are any particular books (besides Rich Dad Poot Dad) or classes that you recommend, I’d be interested to hear about them! Thanks again.
Hi Drew!
The BP Real Estate Rookie podcast has a great episode on this! Here's the link https://open.spotify.com/episo...
In case that link doesn't work, the episode is called 'Building Wealth as a 24 year old with 12 New Construction Projects' and it aired October 20th. Hope you find it helpful!

Hi there!
My name is Stacey. I'm currently a veterinary medicine student at the University of Arizona and brand new to the world of real estate investing. I'm looking to network with other investors both locally and out of state to continue learning, make friends, and find my first investment property.
When it comes to funding and partnerships, I feel a little stumped. As a med student, I'm sitting on a lot of student loans at the moment and zero income. I'm not letting that deter me, I'm just not sure how to take my first steps. How do I find funding (private or conventional) and/or partnerships as a rookie investor that can't contribute to a deal financially or with experience yet. I'm all ears for those that are willing to share your thoughts on this. I'm very clear on my "why", I just need some guidance on the "how".
For those farther along in your investing, did you seek out a mentorship with a seasoned investor when you first started? Is this something you highly recommend?
I appreciate all the insights, conversations and advice here. This community is awesome!
Thanks in advance.

Hi there!
I'm currently a med student at UA and new to real estate investing. Is this meetup open to newbies like myself or is this for seasoned investors?
Thanks so much!
