I was doing some research and looking for a coach and mentor and found Mat Piche, an REI in the Kitchener-Waterloo area. An area I'm looking to start investing in.
He actually got a YouTube channel and have some before and after videos of properties he's renovated and starting to rent out.

@Quang Nguyen, that's kind of funny that I got this post. I do live in Ontario, but am also interested in the Orlando area. That being said, I don't think I can add any value for you. I have been in REI since 2009 (in London, ON), and have read a good deal of books, and been active on some websites. I have not heard of Mat Piche, and as a result, can say neither good nor bad about him. It does sound like he is active, and knowledgeable. I am not sure I am comfortable with his claim on Linked In..."Sick of working HARD for your money? Let me help you break free through real estate investing" I find it often is hard work; makes me think of the REI circuit people. He does state that he is a member of REIN, a Canadian network that seems to be a part of many of the successful Canadian RE authors' repertoire. I would suggest you should contact him and ask him for several references, maybe speak to him for a bit and ask some hard questions about what his program is and why it will benefit you specifically.

@Quang Nguyen - One of the challenges in finding a coach is finding someone who is really skilled and well connected. I don't know what it is about Real Estate investing, but there seem to be so many self proclaimed gurus. It annoys me to no end. I don't know Mat Piche and I'm sure he's fantastic, but why a coach? I feel like every answer can be found online and within your network of other investors these days.
