Going directly to sellers realtor for questions.

[Ramon Mota]

Ok I called a sellers realtor directly because I've never had a condo but was looking to invest in one. $143000 price 950sf, 2bed, 1.5 bath. 

I called to ask how much the HOA was and how the utilities were factored in. Some have utilities included in the dues. The realtor respond that I should have my realtor ask that kind of question.

I feel like I don't want to waste my guys time filling in just a few numbers to see if the place will cash flow. It's close enough for me on paper to go look at it this weekend if I had that last bit of information. 

Is this just one of those things I need to do this way so that I don't step on someone's toes?
