How to Find a Real Estate Investing Mentor

Tuesday, April 20th, 2010

Real_Estate_Investing_MentorI’ve always loved this quote from Proverbs, “As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another.”

It reminds me of the importance of having a mentor, and in our case, a real estate investing mentor.

I met my mentor, Louis Brown, about 3 months after first getting bitten by the REI bug. It was at a free seminar in Atlanta. And there were several real estate investing experts there, but Lou blew them all away in my mind.

There was an expert panel discussion that Lou dominated. His investing prowess seemed unmatched. I had found my mentor.

How to Find a Real Estate Investing Mentor

Having Lou Brown as my mentor has made ALL the difference in my investing career.

And finding the right REI mentor will do the same for you.

There’s a wise saying that you’ve probably heard before, “When the student is ready, the teacher will appear.”

Well, guess what?

In the video below, I show you exactly how to become “ready”. Follow the two steps in the video below and your teacher, your mentor will appear …

    Patrick – as always awesome video!! And I believe you are totally right – especially about the being ready part. You have to get clear on what you want in anything and finding a great mentor really isn’t any different.

    Busy day at Starbucks when you filmed this eh?!!

    Hey Julie … thanks for stopping by. Glad you enjoyed the video. Yeah, Starbucks was slammed yesterday morning. It’s a different location that I usually go to, but even though it’s pretty busy, I like to switch things up here and there.

    Dave … glad you can make the webinar tonight. Lou is awesome. You’ll enjoy.

    Patrick,

    Again a information packed video. Everyone who I have met that is successul in REI,says the same thing, you need a mentor. After fumbling along for years and burning through a lot of money, I found that you need more than one mentor. One on Real Estate, one on how to build a business, one to keep you motivated.

    Charles … you’re dead on. I have mentors in all different areas of business and life. Many of whom I’ve never met … but I’ve studied their works extensively and they guide me day by day.

    I have a marketing mentor, sales mentor, REI mentor, and on and on.

    Thanks for contributing Charles. Let me know if I can help you with anything.
