I'm looking for a mentor to help me get set up in my first investment property.

This way, you may get experience without going overboard.Make connections with local experts, mentors, and other real estate investors.

I am in favor of educational courses but against big time on educational packages that includes coaching and/or mentoring.

While there are lenders out there who lend to first time investors, it would also make sense to start partnering on deals and/or with your first few deals, to bring a partner in for experience, so you can be mentored while also getting hands on experience.

Wife has a masters in engineering, son is a junior at Florida State University studying to be a Material Chemist, and our daughter is sixteen in attending college full-time.

The real estate community here is filled with experienced investors, mentors, and fellow learners who can provide valuable insights and guidance.

This method also allows you to do a friendly foreclosure in the event your property owner ever gets leins or judgments in junior position behind your option which protects both of you.Lastly, there are zero rules to how you structure the terms of the option, so as long as both parties agree it can be done.

Don't pay thousands of dollars for an idea, a class, a mentor.
