Starting in some niche is being a technician on one machine you'll never be an engineer to devise your own deals out of different situations unless you know the basics.Then, you'll be able to vet any mentor, you'll know if they know what they are talking about or if they are snake oil sales types with strategies and programs that are designed to separate you from your money. :)

I was cleaning up a rental that I have , its on a wooded lot , I move the refrigerator and there is a 3 foot black snake laying there ,I pick it up no big deal , But when I came up behind the guy helping me and said " here hold this " and this 50 year old guy screamed like a 12 year old girl , ran out the door and called me every 4 letter word ever created , it took me about 15 minutes to stop laughing .

Most people who talk about those tricks and shortcuts will try to sell you on their "tried and true no money down rags to riches in 6 months method" or whatever, and they're making money on selling advertising on their website, books, seminars and snake oil but not actually real estate.
