Also( and why not) Go to a BP Local Meeting and express your desire to learn and be mentored, and just say what you can bring to the table.

To be honest with you, I have seen a lot of posts here in BP that express the disappointment that can come from a paid mentor.

I just emailed the coordinator for CFRI Lake County chapter and confirmed the 6/8 meeting at the Clermont Holiday Inn Express.

Unlike the stereotypical couple in which the husband wants to move forward with investment deals, and the wife is the one that needs to be cajoled into agreeing with the deals, I was the one that really expressed an interest in real estate. 

I'm going to talk to the original agent I was referred to and express my concerns.

@Evan Bell you've probably heard the expression " you don't ask, you don't get!"

One of my coworkers has expressed interest in investing with me but says that most of his money is tied up in various investment accounts.  

But when I Google the expression, and BP it as well, I can't find a single reference to it.Has anyone used it or run across it?

Real Estate Express has a $99 online course which I purchased and its pretty extensive.
