I am looking for some tips on building capital for an FHA loan, as well as some tips on networking with other investors and to possibly find a mentor.

Yes, I’m interested in joining and have a coaching session with potential mentor coming up here soon but I’m a bit hesitant due to the price and promised return of investment.

If you have already coordinated a meeting and are planning to have some more I'd love to attend a session and learn a little from the professionals in the area!

For plans that will pay off later, get into house hacking, save money for a first payment, meet people in local real estate groups and find a mentor, and put money into things that earn without much work like stock index funds or ETFs.

I could continue earning in perpetuity and giving to charity, but charities tend to weaken and I don't want my money going to something that isn't what it originally was.You sound a lot like my closest friend and mentor, Nathan.

My mentor says you can get more cash flow and liquidity with SFH vs Multifamily, since brokers seem to want a certain cap rate on sales accross a geographic area vs when working with SFH sellers, they're more flexible and motivated based on individual needs.What are your thoughts on buying SFH vs Multifamily?

Also Im willing to do some free leg work in exchange for some mentoring!! 

That is a good approach.You can find a mentor/teacher/coach and learn directly.

The best mentors I've had follow this rule which has made them successful real estate investors. 

Take the time to educate yourself, network with other investors, and consider seeking guidance from a financial advisor or real estate mentor to help you develop a plan that works for you.
