I seem to be having a harder time finding a mentor in my area than I thought I would. The real estate club that I did find is nearly an hour away and both of the meetings that I have attended have had only 5 people. I will give it the benefit of the doubt that it was started 9 months ago, but have contemplated not going back. (I will have to pay $100 to join and have not seen any benefits yet)

I am in the process of reading as many books as I can on the subject but I was looking to get into wholesaling / bird-dogging, while making personal relationships with people I could learn from.

Do real estate investors typically want to lay low and not join groups?

I feel like I must be doing something incorrectly for me to not be able to find anyone?!? I have this idea in the back of my head that I should move to a bigger city to pursue this dream.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.
