Connecting with an Agent (Investment Properties)

[Graeme Teeple]

Hello BiggerPockets,

I had a question regarding finding an agent and looking for rental investment properties. I both have the capital ready and have made the commitment to invest in local residential real estate. I was curious as to how I should go about approaching an agent, in that is it in my best interest as a first time investor to request they provide me with opportunistic properties and then vet them myself by checking the returns? I am lucky enough to have multiple people willing to talk through potential deals with me, I just need to get them established or on the table first.
