Seeking Real Estate Mentorship / Advice

Kristen Peka
Posted

Hi all, I am currently studying Architecture and have experience in an Architectural Firm and as a Site Engineer. I am extremely interested in learning about real estate but I am not entirely sure where to start. I have been watching videos, reading books, and attending meetings. I was wondering if there is anyone in the Minneapolis area who would be willing to let me help/shadow them over the summer. I am looking for a place where I can contribute my skills and receive valuable mentorship and guidance. If you have any thoughts or ideas of where I should look or start I would love to hear them!

@Kristen Peka welcome :). I don't know that I have the time to mentor, or that I'm necessarily qualified to do that, but I am more than happy to grab a coffee and share what I know and my experiences househacking.  My wife and I househack in saint paul and double-dip by making some improvements to the property and we have been through a few tenant cycles and ups/downs; much more ups than downs!  If you think that'd be helpful you can reach out anytime.  If you'd like to make certain connections, I'm happy to help.  THere's a sphere of wonderfully helpful people here ready to answer, share, and help.
