@Justin Swain

You did well to take the initiative to ask the question.  

But, frankly, you didn’t frame the question well or stirring any motivation for anyone to help you. It comes across lazy... and I, personally, don’t want to work with lazy people- let alone mentor them. 

The way you can find mentors is by getting to know Investors (and people in general), being a good, hard-working person, and providing value to them.  No one is going to respond to this inquiry that is worth learning from. 

I suggest you add a profile picture, mention a little bit about yourself, describe things you’ve done already to better yourself, what type of investing (and therefore mentors) you are looking to get into, and some specific goals. Then, and only then, will anyone of any caliber seek to point you in the right direction. 

Like @Mitch Messer said, you should be among on working with others or learning through experience. 

I hope you find this helpful.

    Hi @Justin Swain and welcome to BiggerPockets!

    Yes, we do operate in Columbus, Georgia, but I've learned over the years not to assume that the M Word means the same to me as it does to you.

    Connect with me here on BP and let's see if we can at least work together!

    @Bo Goebel Thank you for the feedback! I can assure you I am not lazy but I understand that is how I came off. Thank you for giving me great feedback that I can use going forward. I’m only 19 so I am trying to leave as much as I can. I’m looking to get into wholesale right now as a college student. I want to get my feet wet in real estate and I believe that wholesaling would be a great place to start.

    That’s great @Justin Swain. Simply knowing a little bit about who you are and your goals and will help anyone looking to provide advice. 

    Keep on the grind. Good luck.
