What are the 3 reasons why you
should choose a local mentor?
Real Estate investing has become
one of the most popular ways to get
out of the 9-to-5 lifestyle and become
financially free. Have you ever heard
the saying: There are more self-made
millionaires through real estate than all other
industries combined? Since the explosion
of popular television programming based on
people making a lot of money flipping real
estate, there are even more people today that
are trying and succeeding in the business.
Part of the reason for this, and based on
the popularity of these television shows, is the
fact there are more so called “gurus” or “men-
tors” for real estate investing than ever! Every
time you get on Facebook or YouTube, there
is an advertisement for someone that wants to
teach you how to become rich flipping proper-
ties using their “system”.
The biggest challenges for these national
mentors and their “systems”, are also the rea-
sons why you should choose a local mentor!
HERE ARE THE 3 REASONS WHY YOU SHOULD
CHOOSE A LOCAL MENTOR...
1.) YOUR MENTOR HAS
TO BE ACCESSIBLE!
When learning any trade, it is almost impossible to
not have any hands on training involved in the process.
This is especially true for Real Estate investing. Your
mentor has to be able to show you the ropes firsthand.
It is truly more of an apprenticeship than mentoring.
Many of those involved with a national mentor com-
plain of not being able to actually contact their mentor
with questions.
More importantly, when it comes time to put a prop-
erty in contract to flip for a profit, their mentor is not
there to help them negotiate the deal and sell the prop-
erty. Even if the national mentor program assigns you
to an investor in your state, there is not much guaran-
teeing that they will be any more accessible.
2.) YOUR MENTOR HAS TO HAVE
EXPERIENCE IN YOUR MARKET!
If you are going to flip houses in Houston Texas,
don’t you think it would make sense to have a mentor
that actually flips houses in Houston? Of course it >
