I live in the SoCal area and searching for a mentor who is looking for a dedicated, inspiring person like myself.

In 2010 as a junior in college I ran into an old friend who inspired me to buy a multifamily property.

Just came across this article on facebook and thought it might be inspirational to us allhttp://www.biggerpockets.com/renewsblog/2014/09/05...see you around =]

Don't listen to music in your car, listen to motivation, inspirational and educational CD's...they will pay dividends in the long-term. 

The Kiyosaki books are great for inspiration, but just remember that they are all based on the American RE markets and tax codes.

I'm about to start buying SFHs using my SDIRA so found your story an inspiration.  

I have been inspired by this deal:http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2016-06-26/nyc-s-waldorf-astoria-said-to-close-in-2017-to-convert-to-condos1.) 

Success stories such as yours serve as an inspiration and proof that it can be done. 

I really enjoy other peoples success stories so hopefully this can inspire others to get out there.Here are the numbers:Sales price: $235,000Purchase price: $108,000Rehab/holding costs: $70,825Closing costs (including Tax withholding): $7,577Profit: $48,598This ended up being a pretty large project, and actually the first project I managed 100% on my own, so that makes the success all that much better.  

That's incredible and inspiring!
