Hello BP Fam,
I am looking for a successful fix-and-flip/ rent to hold investor in the Richmond area that would be willing to provide some mentorship time for me to grow my REI business. I have completed three flips now, but have not quite hit the marks on profits I expected. I believe my processes are sound, but not refined. If there is someone in the area that would be willing to sit down with me a few times, or allow me to tag along/ assist through their process, I would be interested in meeting up.
Please, I am not interested in attending a workshop that ends up being a sales pitch.
if you're not doing so already, maybe go to some meetups and just do some networking?
i've also found that, with respect to those pitch-type meetings, if you go in eyes open, you can still go, listen to the pitch, not buy the thing, and try to use the time to meet / network with other investors. i used to live in the DC area and that was my strategy - went to lots, got pitched a lot, didn't buy, met some great folks.

Thanks Nicholas,
I have been having a hard time finding meetups in my area, but will keep looking. And yes, I do attend some of the pitch events when I see them. While there are certainly good networking to be done there, I find most people are just getting started in their REI journey at those events.
I hoping to find someone in my area who has been at it for a while and willing to share their successes/ lessons learned.
