Quote from @Lee Banks: Hi my name is Lee I'm looking too buy my first rental property and but I feel as if I need a mentor to watch, I still need to learn the basics of real-estate does anyone in New York do programs or mentorships and where would you start if you first started real-estate today  Hello Lee,I'd recommend looking up local meetups here on BP, meetup.com and, eventbrite.You can also call around to speak with RE investors and professionals in your target market to begin making connections.With so much available information online, I'd recommend speaking to a few people and doing independent research before committing to mentorships.

I'm a real estate agent and my wife is the operator of our senior living business.

If I get my sales agent license, I will need a broker sponsor.

Yea, fire your boss and live off real estate.

Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?

People always say the best time to invest in real estate was last year. 

I owned real estate before but lost it all in the GFC. 

I locked up my first deal , now im trying to find buyers. I never put my time into finding buyers unless I had something to offer. How do I find Buyers??

Why do you feel these posts contribute nothing to the forums when this particular forum is specifically designed to review real estate businesses?
