My journey into real estate investing started in August 2023 when I joined the "Homeschooled by Tarek" program, led by Tarek El Moussa himself and his amazing panel of coaches! 

Take a class, by gaining experience taking action or from someone else's experience (a coach or mentor).

The Coach provided the first 8,000 mailers.

Getting started in real estate and have been reading and listening for the past year or so.I’ve decided STR is the way I’d like to invest but have been spinning my wheels lately looking across Zillow and stuck in analysis paralysis.I think I need a little help getting the ball moving and I think some classes/coaching can get me started now.Any recommendations for something to help me purchase my first property for STR?

What are your favorite resources for the best learning and coaching? 

I am in Clermont and a member of several meet up groups as well as a 6  year member of CFRI, the largest REIA and know plenty of people from hard money to contractors to coaches.

Add to that a mentor or productivity coaching program to help you to become successful.

I assume your "coaching" is for profit, and wouldn't you feel bad giving advice to people that, based on your inexperience, might turn out to be flat wrong, especially for money?

During the process I hired a sales coach and a paid for someone to teach me how to run ads more profitably and effectively.
