@Tchaka Owen well I’m currently pretty well doing the business by myself. My wife is on board, but not active with things. So, primarily, I am trying to get myself around other like-minded people. A lot of my close friends do not dabble in real estate like I’m trying to. So that’s my primary goal is getting around other people that are doing the same as myself!

Currently where I am at is I have a duplex and a single-family house. Put 20% down on the duplex and did a BRRRR on the single-family

So I met with a gentleman yesterday who is an Executive and Business Coach. I sought him out after attending a local REIA meetup. He was of course incredibly convincing, has mastermind meetups, and seemed very genuine, but at the same time seems to be a very good salesman. I can be very vulnerable and realize this in myself. This is the first time I've ever sought out services like this. To attend his mastermind and get access to those things he offers he said it was $2,000 upfront then $747/month.

Seems expensive, but for those that have done things like this before or done courses like that is this reasonable?
