Admittedly, I am not one that typically finds paid mentorship very valuable, but I also respect that my degree is in business with a focus on real estate, and my first job out of college was in real estate (so it is a little hard for me to take my 20 yrs of knowledge and rewind it to try to view mentors from a completely fresh lens).A couple points: I view mentors, especially these expensive ones as a catch-22.

Do you have to know all of the ins and outs of real estate?

Quick heads-up: Starting January 4, 2025, Pennsylvanias Act 52 requires anyone involved in wholesaling real estate to be a licensed agent.

DSCR loans are based off of down payment, credit score and either actual or market rents so it helps to supercharge an investor's real estate goals and net worth.

If you pay more, you won't meet your metrics and will probably have negative cashflow and/or equity.You may have to make 10, 20 or even 100 offers to get one accepted at the price that meets your numbers.This is what all investors did BEFORE the Great Real Estate Crash of 2008-2010.

Hang out with others that are doing what you want to do and invest your $25-$50,000 in real estate vs education. 

When a 21-year-old claims to make $600,000 in his first year of real estate, someone should verify that before sticking a mic in his face and praising his successes.Being on the podcast used to be a big deal.

Wherever you took your broker's class you should have ample study materials.If you are talking about your real estate agent's license in NJ (that is not a broker's license), you need to take the initial class at an accredited agency and they will give you all of the materials after you finish the 75 hours for the test. 

Figure out the cost to sell, usually 5% to the real estate agent, sometimes a "concession" fee, and other closing costs.
