I am a "Newbie" in REI. I am trying now to put together my team. I would like to have you on it if you will. "The Fear of Failure Is What Will Keep Me from Succeeding". What I am truly in need of is a bonafied REI to Mentor / Teacher to show me step by step, preferably someone local to me. Do you know of someone?

Why do I need a Mentor / Teacher?
The answer is simple. People learn differently from one another. Some will pick up a book and learn, some will listen to speakers & learn, some will look at it & learn, & others like myself are those that feel they way to learning. I am more of a hands on person, 1st lets build the engine then teach how it runs while we're building it. To some I know it sounds strange but to others it makes perfect sense. I've read many books, gone to many seminars but have yet to fully utilize their teachings. Hence the reason for the mentor.
"The Fear of Failure Is What Will Keep Me from Succeeding".
This is my quote about me, at times we need someone to teach us to move past this.

Hey Handyman.
I presume that you already have the talk to make deals happen just by reading your post.You need to define what you want to do as an investor,the choice is yours: flipping,wholesaling, buy subject to, short sale or buy apt building. Then set a team of real estate professional you may need to close deals. Welcome to the university ; we learn so much in here and good luck.

Good Day D. Moore!

Wanted to pop in and welcome you to the group. I'm glad you joined. Looking forward to hearing about your many upcoming successful real estate ventures.

Let's start by moving past your self affirmation to a new and improved statement. May I suggest an updated version?

"The fear of failure did not stop me from accomplishing the success that I was destined to achieve"

And to put your affirmation on hyperdrive I suggest reading 2 Tim. 1:7

Peace....
