Here's a much earlier thread (by Steph's teacher) that has interesting bits from Steph herself, in between the "for and against" hyberbole:- https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/79/topics/410...Fast forward seven years, and the latest reincarnation appears to be: quickflipninja.comThere are multiple threads about that one too eg:- https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/79/topics/179...Everyone needs to make up their own minds as to yea or nay regarding allowing themselves to be upsold into expensive education/mentoring, or, researching the same info for "free"!

I want desperately to find a niche, mentor or something that can get me started.

Any help, mentoring and advise is greatly appreciated.

Now, I wouldn't be so short about that post if she didn't have "real estate mentor" in her signature line, that implies knowledge and experience, 17 years is long enough but if you're not current then much of that can be irrelevant, we get a lot of folks on here with guru knowledge based on folklore, just be more careful as to what you take in off the internet. :)@Jaylyn Heartso   First, what is "MMJ friendly"?

Looking for guidance and mentors.  

I am also seeking a mentor. 

Every now and then they have another guide we can read for free to get some concepts down.Personally, I've read many books, listened to tapes and cd's, attended seminars, and webinars, and even had a license for several years.I think of 2-3 online YouTube mentors that I really liked and think you might want to start there Steph Davis and wholesaling, Phil Pustejovsky on Creative finance, and Ron LeGrand for Owner Finance, Lease Options, Subject to, of Pretty Houses!

Looking for a mentor/coach in the local Indy area, possibly further, if it could work out. 

I have reached out to a few local wholesalers mentor me, but, since I am a real estate agent, I've been told that real estate agents are not good candidates, or that I should find deals 1st and take it from there.  

find a mentor in your area, it will save you tons of money in the future if you pick the right person.
