Looking for comercial real estate mentor

**russ-million** · 10-26-2010 09:46 PM

Hello,
My partner and I are hoping to break into the comercial real estate market. We took Monica Mason's real estate course, and it was very helpful. However, we still feel that we need a more pesonal mentor who is willing to help us through our first 2 or 3 deals.

We're looking for someone who has bought property before. We also would be willing to pay a fee for your help.
Thanks

Hey there! Love the post. One thing I would suggest is that you reach out to people within your community that have already been in your position. Learn from them . Chances are that for the most part they will be willing to help a few people out who are passionate and driven to succeed. Just be genuine with your request. Make their time useful and give back when you use their advice and it gives you success. Good luck! Just don't be afriad to reach out...every successful entrepreneurs has done it...

Well the best way would be to tie up with an existing broker in your area. Ask them if you could get a buyer for one of their properties then if you can work together. While I am not into real estate, recently I helped an established broker find a buyer for their property and I actually learnt everything related to the paperwork, how to go about talking to both the buyer and seller and negotiate on behalf of the clients.
