Looking Real Estate Agent in Phoenix, AZ

[Rosie Hernandez]

I’m looking to start investing in real estate within the Phoenix market (specifically Tempe or Mesa). My goal is to purchase a duplex so that I can live in one unit and rent out the other, but if none of those come up during the search, then a single family home would be a good option as well.

I’ve met with a couple of recommended real estate agents who seem genuine and knowledgeable, but they just don’t see my vision. I think the disconnect here is occurring because they mainly focus on finding family homes instead of potential real estate investments.

So I’m reaching out here to see if I could get some advice on whether I should move forward with one of these great agents or search for one that focuses on investment properties. If so, how can I begin that search or do any of you fit that profile? Any and all advice is appreciated, especially when it comes to the Phoenix market.
