Realtors who are Investors
Hi guys, Im new to the forums on BP. I have some concerns about using a realtor who is an investor. I keep thinking why would they want to bring me a great deal when they could snag it for themselves? Have any of you dealt with this? I would love to know your experiences and input. We have yet to find a deal even though we are actively looking. We plan a trip to middle Tennessee area next week to scope out some neighborhoods. Try to find a buy box area. We are looking to buy and rent with the longer term plan to do some rehab.
Any advice for a beginner?
