If you have ever been a technology hiring manager (and many other hiring managers as well) in the last couple of decades, you have probably experienced the incoming 'stack' of resumes when a position is posted.

There are many in the LA area and are a great way to connect with people, and learn from more experienced investors. 

@Jordan Presley Go to your local REIA and present the deal to experienced investors there.

Starting out with someone experienced is smart.Locate and attend 3 different local REIA club meetings great place to meet people gather resources and info.

More experienced investors have passed on that deal and the wholesaler is looking for someone to unload it on.

Ideally, I would love to find an experienced flipper to learn the business from and I would be willing to help them out anyway that I could...be that with my time or money.

My goal is to flip houses, possibly partner with someone experienced .  

It's nice to have a place to ask questions and get experienced advice.

I would love to ask the community (experienced or a newbie) a question and feel free to answer below (if you want):What do you wish you could tell past self before you embarked on your investing journey?
