need help

[Matt Ellis]

Hey guys I have a question. I have been trying to break into REI and I have been working with another investor who is "helping" me. I am just not sure how genuine he is. First he had sign a contract so he can be my buyers agent ( he is also a real estate agent). I told him that I wasnt interested in using all my savings to invest but i dont think he listens. He wanted to sell me a house he had listed that would require 12k in repairs. When i told him didnt want to buy that he offered to sell me one of his houses that he owned. He also suggested that I use my VA loan to buy a house and suggested that I go through his spouse ( who works for a mortage company). I dont know if I am being overly suspicious or what. So what do you guys think?
