Find that mentor and prove to him or her that you'll be the hardest working employee they'll ever have!  

Other methods could include going to meetups, networking on LinkedIn, and finding local real estate investors to mentor you

Of course there are deals to be found in any market and in any area but a mentor once told me "you either get cash flow or you get appreciation, you dont get both".

Luckily I got in touch with a Real Estate Investor who agreed to be my mentor and told me to start by generating leads for her Lease Purchasing company.

Start growing your network, look on Facebook/BiggerPockets for different events, find a mentor who is doing what you want to do, and get to know the local lenders/brokers. 

For me, it is the famous quote by Eric Thomas that has sent chills throughout my bones ever since I heard it for the first time during my junior year of high school.

This can be done through Podcasts, Books, and Mentors you find by networking.

You may find someone to partner with that has the experience and contacts to accelerate the process and mentor you along the way.Go to NETWORK at the top of your screen and you can search for other investors and investment groups in your area.
