Finding & screaning a good buyers agent.

[Jerry Cima]

Hi All, I wanted to see if any of you had some tips on locating & screening a good buyers agent. As some background, I'm looking to duplexes & triplexes in Putnam & Duchess county NY. The goal is to buy a property to rent out (either one in solid condition or a flip). I already started emailing larger broker agencies asking if there is anyone that specifically deals with acquisition of income properties in my area. I'm also reading reviews on brokers. Here are questions i plan to ask.

How long have you been an agent?
How many properties have you sold? How many of those are rental properties?
How many properties have you sold in ABC Town?
Do you own any rental properties?
On average, how long does it take you to respond to emails? Voice mails?

What other questions am i missing? Are any of these questions out of place?
