Hi @Carlos Sierra - It seems like you are definitely mentally ready to start tackling real estate - looking for a mentor is a fantastic next step.Just be careful that you set expectations correctly for yourself and for the mentor - most of the time that I've sought the advice of a mentor, they've directed me to some resource or material.In case you are interested - I wrote about my experience finding mentors in this "Ultimate Guide to Finding Incredible Mentors" - I hope that it helps you with your search!
