Need a partner in Oregon ( Portland area )

Hello all,
My name is Simona
I'm excited to get started with Deans RE Investing, but I'm alone, most of my friends I mention to them , or asked them to partner with me, are kinda not taking me serious, or laughing at me, and I don't need a partner like that.
I'm looking for an honest, reliable Partner in my area.
Thank you Smiling
