Mentor - Investing in Rentals

[Jason Crowe]

I've taken the leap to purchase property to rent.  I was fortunate enough to find a quadplex for a very reasonable deal and negotiated in my favor.  First time homebuyer a month prior.  I've taken the leap and am looking for a mentor who will not just tell me what I am doing right but specifically tell me what I am not doing or doing wrong.  In addition, provide time and effort in their endeavors before I am given anything.  I'm also educated and eligible to sit for the realtor estate exam as well in this little bit of time as the experiences I had and the people I met along the way convinced me in my area that more specific questions and small details needed to be payed attention to or things didn't turn out so well.  Its been difficult to find experienced and knowledgeable people in the field as I will be told one thing from a professional but then educate myself and find out it either not true or the logical thing to do.  My background is in clinical operations, project management and lean six sigma analysis.  Finance was a foundational education received in college.  Please message me.

Jason,

Glad to hear you've taken the leap into real estate and purchased a 4-unit. 

Unfortunately, finding good mentors/coaches takes time. You'll have to go to local meetups and chat with various folks. See who everyone is getting along with and what others say about him/her. 

Also, if anyone tells you that you have to invest or give them money NOW then run!

It will take time to find the right folks but over time the cream always rises to the top!

Best of luck!
