REO Broker AND Regular Agent?

[Natalie C.]

This is a newbie question.

I am starting to 'take action', and my first step is reaching out to real estate agents, which I have already done. I've also been emailing with a property manager, who recommended a REO broker.

If I understand correctly, it is standard to have only one agent you work with.

Do people ever work with a 'regular' real estate agent AND a REO broker? Is that kosher or not? Either way is fine, just trying to learn what is appropriate and what is not.

Thanks!
