@Bryce Jamison That's great advice. Thank you! I'll look for a meetup that I can go to

Hello,

My name is Conner, and I’m an ambitious 18-year-old based in the Buffalo, NY area, actively looking to connect with an experienced real estate investor or agent who’s open to mentoring someone hungry to learn and grow in the field.

I’m prepared to provide value in any way I can—whether it’s being your boots on the ground for property photos, helping manage properties, or handling tasks that make your life easier. I’m highly motivated, reliable, and eager to absorb everything I can about real estate from someone who’s already walked the path.

I’ll be taking my New York State real estate exam in just a few days, and I’m looking to hit the ground running. If you're open to mentoring or could use a driven local partner, I’d love the opportunity to connect and learn from you.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Best regards,
Conner

@Caleb Brown thats great advice thank you! I bought a couple books so far but ill definitely look into some podcasts and different networking events.

@Abel Curiel thank you so much for the advice that's great! My parents have always told me, "Life is more about who you know and less of what you know." Would you say that's true in your experience and in the field of real estate?

Hello! I am 18 years oId and I just passed my Real Estate course exam and I take the state exam in June. Once I pass that I will be a licensed agent in the state of New York. What are some things I should know when choosing a brokerage and connecting with different people to become a successful agent. My ultimate goal is to invest in rental properties, multifamilies, fix & flips, and anything else that I can get into. I don't want to be an agent for a long time, I'm getting my license as just another tool in my bag and learn the ropes and connect with people that can help me along my journey. What do you guys think of this? What are some things I can do in the early stages of my investing journey since I'm only 18 and have a lot to learn. 

Thanks,

Conner
