I am contemplating going back next fall, but not sure.In the past year I have taught myself coding, so I try everyone in a while to get side work doing that, but without a name or portfolio it is difficult, but I have started creating a Real Estate website that I think would do VERY VERY well with Real Estate and would have the potential to compete with Zillow/Realtor.com , but I do not have the skills to create everything needed, so that thought is on hold, probably for a decent amount of time.Now that I have given my background.

Instead of just asking for a mentor and not providing anything, I've decided I will offer to lend a hand (for free) on some projects and learn through osmosis vs a sit down coffee chat.My skills: I know little about real estate investing but I work in equity research so I am very aware of the fundamentals of valuation.

Skills, time, money ect.  

Master problem solving skills, you aren't shopping on the MLS like a sham flim flam type, you're looking for distressed properties and distressed owners, understanding your buyers, the market and the rules allows you to solve problems, that's part of your service.8.

You don't have any skill or experience yet to offer because you are new.

. ;)PM me if you're interested in using your sales skills to augment your ability to generate funding for your deals.

I think alot of it is also i need to up my skills in motivating people to do awesome work and to be extremely clear in the instructions and ensure they fully understand!

A big reason I want to get into rei is because I have carpentry background and feel my skills in carpentry could make me a lot more money in investing than working for someone else.

I will be renting out my house in Georgia and hopefully will find a good deal on a foreclosure (trying to save some money and put my minor handyman skills to use) when I get to the NCR.I am hoping to learn a lot and make some good connections with folks to enhance my abilities and knowledge on investment properties and how to utilize my continuous moving to my advantage. 

I'm new to REI, only three years, it was my advanced computer skills that got me to stumble upon few deals; and, I've been trying to turn it into a livelihood ever since.
