The real estate world can be complicated. There are a significant amount of terms and concepts that you need to understand to be successful in the field. Real Estate Investors, borrowers, and entrepreneurs are some of the most fundamental terms you’ll need to know.
Luckily, these are very self-explanatory and easy to understand. Here is what each term means and the differences as well as similarities between them.

What is a Borrower?
A borrower is generally a person who is looking to obtain funding for an investment property. Although prospective borrowers are individuals, once they are approved for financing, their funding is sent to their LLC or company that has been set up for the purchase.
In the context of hard money and private money lending, the funding provided is used to finance a real estate venture. In the world of private lending when funding a real estate investment, there are borrowers and lenders.
Real Estate Investors are people who purchase properties as investments to provide them with passive income. Real Estate Entrepreneurs are those who receive the majority, if not all, of their monthly income through real estate investing.
Once a real estate investor or entrepreneur has sought out financing for a property purchase, they become a borrower.
What are Real Estate Investors and Entrepreneurs?
Both real estate investors and entrepreneurs are individuals who invest in real estate to generate income or benefits. There are many similarities between the two, but they’re defined by a few key differences.
Real estate entrepreneurs were once investors, who have transitioned from solely investing in a few properties to creating a business acquiring multiple properties as their main source of income. Their business model as an entrepreneur is based upon the act of investing in real estate full-time.
Aside from having the technical ability to spot lucrative real estate opportunities, entrepreneurs hold the critical ability to seize them at the right time. Driven to succeed just as much as the entrepreneur, investors tend to have less experience, are just starting out in the real estate world, or don’t put in as much time into their investment ventures. As a result, they are more concerned with smaller details and the daily functioning of their company or portfolios.

When just starting out, it makes sense for any real estate investor to be preoccupied with the individual aspects of their property to make sure they stay afloat. However, as the investor grows, entrepreneurship and its tenets become more and more plausible. Any investor can become an entrepreneur, but not every investor does.
Real Estate Education
Being knowledgeable about the real estate market is critical in becoming a successful real estate entrepreneur or investor. That much is obvious. With more knowledge or experience in the field, entrepreneurs are able to lower risks, better investments, and build stronger relationships with lenders.

If you want to quickly grow within real estate, finding a good mentor is the best thing you can do for yourself. Whether they be in real estate, politics, or business, almost any successful person had a mentor who helped them get to where they are now. Books, podcasts, and videos will only get you so far when it comes to learning about real estate investing. After that, it’s all about real-world experience and gaining valuable connections.
To learn as much as possible in a relatively short amount of time, you should look into ways to find a real estate mentor. Someone who is trustworthy and knowledgeable will help you quickly grow within the industry and get you closer to your goals. By sharing their mistakes, they can help you avoid making your own. By aligning yourself with someone who has already reached your set goals, you are more likely to achieve your own. There is more to finding a real estate mentor than just picking someone you admire. This article will go over everything you need to know about how to find a real estate mentor.
What is a Real Estate Mentor?
A real estate mentor is someone who will help you quickly grow within your real estate career by offering advice and coaching based on their own experience. Typically, you will choose someone who already has many years of experience and is now knowledgeable enough to share their own experiences with you. They should be willing to help guide you through your career journey based on things they learned in theirs. This mentorship should be a beneficial relationship for both parties. You should also bring something valuable for your mentor, like new skills, networking connections, or potential deals.

Best Ways to Find a Real Estate Mentor
The perfect real estate mentor should be someone who is successful in the same things that you aspire to do in your own career. Before looking for a mentor, you should complete the following steps:
Identify what you want to accomplish in your real estate career
Establish whether or not your potential mentor has the credentials and experience to help you reach your own goals
Look for someone in the same type of real estate investment you see yourself in (flipping homes, wholesale, property management, etc.)
Make sure the goals of your mentor align with yours
Ensure there is a mutual level of respect
Once you better understand what you want in a real estate mentor, you can begin looking for someone who could be the right fit. This list includes some of the best ways to find a real estate mentor.
Join local real estate groups
Attend networking events
Try out all aspects of real estate to meet the most people
Share your work online and on social media
Create a robust LinkedIn profile and connect with other real estate professionals
Engage with their content and attend their sessions
Types of Real Estate Mentorships
Before you jump right into finding your real estate mentor, you should decide which type of mentorship works best for you. Consider things like your learning style, availability, and what you feel you need to learn from your mentor to succeed. Once you understand yourself and your needs better, you’ll be able to choose the best mentor for you. Below are a few different types of real estate mentorships you may want to consider when looking for your own.
Personalized Coaching
With a personalized coaching style of mentorship, you will get one-on-one coaching from your mentor. This is an excellent option for anyone just starting off in real estate who could benefit from a lot of personalized advice that pertains to their specific needs and goals. This mentor will be someone experienced in the type of real estate investing you plan to get into who can help walk you through any potential projects or deals.
Mastermind Groups
Unlike the personal coaching style of mentorship, being in a mastermind group is like having many mentors around you who you can reach out to. Check your area to see if there are any real estate investing groups that you can join. This is an easy way to connect with peers in real estate and start making connections with people who can help you. If there are no groups in your area, look into some virtual groups instead. You may even end up meeting someone who you want as your mentor in one of these groups.
Apprenticeships
Some of the best knowledge you can gain is through experience. The quickest and easiest way to get lots of experience is through an apprenticeship. With this type of mentorship, you will assist your mentor as they show you the ropes through their own business. This is a valuable way to get hands-on experience, plus you can see how someone who is successful in the same goals you set for yourself conducts their own business. Pay close attention to what your mentor does throughout your apprenticeship so you can follow their example.

How to Pick the Right Mentor for You
It’s important to note that just because someone has good knowledge of the industry doesn’t mean they’re a good fit for you. Don’t feel obligated to accept someone’s offer to be a mentor just because they are open to it. This is a symbiotic relationship, and both people need to get something out of it. Do your research and make sure whoever you pick as your mentor has similar goals as your own. The best real estate mentor will be able to help you fast-track your goals and grow quickly within your area of real estate. Start by looking for someone who is already accomplishing what you aspire to in your future.
Once you find people who are successful in ways that you hope to be, make sure they would make a good mentor. Just because someone is successful doesn’t mean they are good at being a real estate mentor. If someone doesn’t feel like the right fit, don’t be afraid to talk to others. Find someone who has a good communication style that matches your own. Committing to a mentorship is a big decision, and there is no need to rush it.
Does Real Estate Mentorship Cost Money?
Everyone is different when it comes to requiring payment for mentorship. This is something you should discuss with your potential mentor before committing to anything. That said, having a good mentor can put you ahead of your competition and speed up your success within real estate. Despite costing money, getting a real estate mentor is something you should highly consider for yourself if you want to achieve your goals.

The company, co-founded by HGTV stars Tarek and Heather Rae El-Moussa, will help facilitate Better Earth’s $400 million in annual sales.
SOAR Energy, the #1 fastest growing solar company co-founded by HGTV stars Tarek and Heather Rae El-Moussa along with Shelby Elias and led by mortgage veteran Brian Decker, today announced its partnership with Better Earth, the leading vertically integrated residential solar energy installation company.
The move marks a pivotal step into the real estate sustainability sectors of California, Arizona, Texas and Florida on the heels of the recently passed Inflation Reduction Act, which allocated nearly $400 billion in federal funding toward clean energy. The companies will collaborate to strengthen their shared mission of educating consumers about solar energy options.

“We started SOAR with the goal of confronting the climate crisis head-on and emphasizing the importance of clean energy in the real estate sector,” said Tarek and Heather Rae El-Moussa. “More solar energy systems are being installed now than they were even a few years ago, and the capacity for solar energy in the U.S. is growing rapidly. Combining efforts with an innovative, fast-growing company like Better Earth was a no-brainer. Together, we are committed to making solar energy affordable and easy for residents across all states where our business is active.”
The Solar Energy Industries Association set its nationwide goal for solar energy to reach 30 percent of U.S. electricity generation by 2030, highlighting the fast-tracked growth the sector is set to see over the next several years. Further, the U.S. Department of Energy recognizes solar energy as the most abundant energy source on earth. However, the residential real estate sector has grappled with pain points as solar panels remain a hard-to-navigate topic for brokers across the U.S. Together, Better Earth and SOAR Energy are determined to change this. Since joining forces, the companies have worked together to install nearly 1,000 solar energy systems in homes across the states it operates in, and in six months have created over $20 million in energy savings for homeowners over the next decade.
“Better Earth and SOAR Energy have set out to disrupt and redefine the real estate sector’s approach to solar energy,” said Zain Jan, Chief Executive Officer at Better Earth. “There is a misunderstanding about how affordable solar energy options are for homeowners, and we are committed to making a significant impact on both consumer education and the environment we all share. By joining forces through this partnership, we are eager to solve the issues facing the sector and grow in our efforts across the states we serve.”

SOAR Energy’s solar systems are fully transferrable upon the sale of a home and offer financing options with no line on the property, vastly differentiating the company within the sector. The systems, which typically take no more than 90 days to be fully installed and begin saving homeowners money, hold Pearl Certifications, highlighting their unmatched quality and energy efficiency. Additionally, for every installation made, SOAR Energy and Better Earth donate a portion of the proceeds to GivePower, a nonprofit organization that focuses on providing clean water globally.
As the federal government continues to roll out additional clean energy initiatives, SOAR Energy and Better Earth will remain at the forefront of the sector, educating its consumers on how these can apply to them. For more information on this partnership, visit www.soarenergy.com.

As the mortgage industry struggles, Advisors Mortgage Group expands
OCEAN TOWNSHIP, N.J., June 13, 2023 — Advisors Mortgage Group, based in Ocean Township, New Jersey, today announces an influx of new loan officers joining the Company. While the mortgage industry has seen many companies closing and banks, such as Wells Fargo, dissolving their mortgage lending divisions, Advisors Mortgage Group is still growing.
“One of the many things setting Advisors Mortgage apart from our competition is the support we offer loan officers. We have a marketing department that curates custom campaigns weekly for prospecting and we have implemented milestone marketing to our borrowers. CRM assistance, custom websites, social media set-up and posting are also tools provided consistently. We train our loan officers to be consultants and trusted advisors and provide them with weekly live streaming shows on the current state of the markets,” says Jonathon Iacono, national recruiting manager.
Dave Wicki, Ocean, New Jersey, branch manager, returned to Advisors after a year’s absence and had this to say: “I came back home to Advisors because of its family-oriented culture. The support they provide to all their loan officers is unrivaled. They listen to my needs and go out of their way to set me up for success.”
ADVERTISEMENT
Steve Yap recently joined the company, claiming, “Advisors is the best in the business, and I know I will be successful with all of the support they provide to their loan officers.”
Newly hired loan officer Colleen Reed notes: “I came on board to Advisors after meeting with my branch manager and talking with many title companies and agents about their past experiences with this company. I heard nothing but great things, looked into all the marketing platforms, talked to other loan officers at Advisors and made a great decision to join the company. The transition with the entire staff from onboarding to training has been amazing.”
Jordy Castillo, market manager, from the Wantagh, New York, branch states: “Before I decided to join Advisors Mortgage Group I was being recruited by Citibank and East West Bank. I also had an offer from CrossCountry Mortgage. I decided to join Advisors simply because I knew that it was the right fit. I’d referred Carlos Quezada to a few deals that I couldn’t do, and he was able to get them closed quickly and efficiently so I felt comfortable making the move.”
ADVERTISEMENT
Castillo continued: “In the current mortgage market, I truly believe that it is more important than ever before to have the right partner. I declined senior management roles at both Citibank and East West Bank because I knew I would be limiting myself and my loan officers. Big banks come in and out of the mortgage market, with that said I wanted to make sure that I joined a company where mortgage originations are their only priority. In addition to this, at Advisors, we have access to every single product you could ever need. Our transparent process, family atmosphere and loan officer-first mentality firmly sets us apart from the competition. With the support of senior leadership, Carlos and I will build a top-producing sales team here at Advisors Mortgage Group. The future looks bright at Advisors Mortgage Group, and I feel fortunate to be able to be a part of it.”
According to metrics provided by Marketrac®, a premier online portal providing intelligent, on-demand data and analysis on real estate transactions, Advisors is the top purchase lender on the Jersey Shore. The Company has also made the Inc. 5000 Fastest Growing Private Companies list numerous times since 2009, was named Best Mortgage Lender five years in a row by the Asbury Park Press in their Community Choice Best of the Best awards and also made the NJBIZ Best Places to Work list for the past decade.
