Success in real estate isn’t just about hustle, it’s about direction and having a clear path to success (preferably one that others have walked on).

That’s where getting a mentor comes in. It helps you achieve the right results faster.

In the real estate world, there are thousands of people claiming to be mentors…some charging thousands for a bit of their time. The problem is, the wrong mentor can do more harm than not having a mentor at all, so how do you pick the right one?

Many people make the mistake of going with the first mentor they meet, picking someone whose personality they like, or paying for the priciest mentor out there.

This can be detrimental to your goals.

The most important part of picking a mentor? Making sure they’ve actually done what you want to do.

What should we avoid when choosing a mentor? How does a mentor transform our businesses?

In this episode, I break down how to find the right mentor, the one who doesn’t just hype you up or sell you a course, but actually helps you do the real work.

I share how mentorship helped me go from CPA to flipping over 1,500 homes, building a 400-agent brokerage, and earning $115K on a single deal.
