New to Investing. Help?

[Deahneece Ridgell]

I am in the Franklin/Nashville, TN area. I am looking to start investing as I believe I will love it. I am looking for a coach or mentor to help expand my knowledge so I can begin to invest. I’m sure COVID makes things weird but I was told to buy in when the prices are low so I would like to get ahead of it. Any ideas or people that come to mind?

Thanks in advance!

You should never, ever pay for a coach or a mentor before you already have established some business. You can get all the knowledge to get your first deal going for free via podcasts, books, and local REI Zooms or in-person when COVID is safer. Too many new investors pay out for a course or a guru only to realize there is always another sell. Just make REI connections in you area, build friendships with other investors, agents, and real estate-adjacent people. In six months you will learn a ton and maybe only bought a couple virtual coffees.
