Go to NETWORK at the top of your screen and you can search for other investors and investment groups in your area. You can also check meetup.com or search facebook for real estate investment groups, clubs, or meetings in your area.

@Tyler J. look for successful people who are doing what you want to do.  There are a lot of ways to play the game.  Figure out how you want to play and then look for others doing the same thing.  My experience has been that most people who have had success are happy to share what they have learned.  As you talk to more people, you will find someone you connect with.  Ask them to lunch or coffee on a regular basis.  Find out how you can help them as well.  The best mentoring relationships are win/win.  I'd be happy to connect with you if it would be helpful.  I've been investing for 16 years, mainly in multi-family.  Let me know if I can help.  Best of luck!

Hey @Tyler J., here on Bigger Pockets is definitely a great place to find some mentors! If you have anyone around you who is in the real estate world, reaching out to them would also be a great start. Luckily for me I stumbled across my mentors organically while just trying to learn, you're headed in the right direction by just being on the forum!

I would love to share my journey with you or answer any questions you may have!
