You will learn a lot doing this, and that will keep you from having to learn lessons the hard way.Whatever you do, do not listen to anyone saying you should spend your $10,000 on "coaching" or their "system" or their seminar or training. 

Fresh out of college and drowning in those student loan debts 😩 If there's any such thing as a coach who's willing to mentor and we split deals then then I'm in.

I will say I have not heard good things about the coaching program though,so proabablt best to stay away from that:https://www.reiclub.com/products/4756. 

Honestly, I think the idea behind it is to build fear and unknowns with brand new investors so they come back and want to invest in whatever expensive program offered... the guy who suggested 100 properties before even considering making an offer happened to offer $10k coaching via Skype or somehing... 

I wish all the coaches and teachers would start using the correct terminology.

I go pretty much by the bigger pockets formula, some of my main instant declines are:Gross less than 3x monthly rentevictions, feloniespoor rental historyDogs that my insurance does not coverOk, beyond that, things get gray for me…and I had a coach tell me this… “If you ever make an exception on one criterion, you must continue to make that exception from now on.   

With this amount, you can afford to hire some of the best coaches in the space to show you how to analyze markets, underwrite deals and manage the asset for profitability. 

Take some time to write down your goals and share them with someone you respect who can coach you.  

I'm just getting started in investing, and am wondering if any of you advise in investing in getting a coach? 

It's mainly geared towards attracting new investors and also signing them up for the company's coaching business, but the knowledge and content is still top tier.
