Raleigh/ NC triangle Wholesaling newbie searching for Mentor!

[Wes Evans]

I am new to the real estate investing world. Currently work a full time job and my vision for the future is to be 100% into the real estate investing world. I can offer nights and weekends to focus on learning/working. 

My initial though is to start off with wholesaling - This gives me a good foundation into the real estate world - Creating a network, finding deals, marketing, due diligence, coordinating deals. I also see it as a huge benefit the be able to set up some marketing that is working while I am not working (Direct mail and websites).

I am looking to start off by finding a mentor who is already in the wholesaling world. I am truly looking for someone who will let me start off by doing whatever is needed to help out (marketing, driving for dollars, putting together investor material, and anything else that will build knowledge). Ideally, this person would partner with me once I start doing my own deals to add value through support and knowledge. 

Anyone in the NC triangle area who would be willing to let me work/learn to help grow your business? I am starting to attend local REIA events. Any other recommendations for finding a mentor in the area?
