How to Know if the RE Agent will help you and not take advantage of you?
Theres a lot I can still learn about this. I got in contact with one familiar agent so far, but what kind of questions should I ask? What should I watch out for so I wont get ripped off? I got a little ripped of before but this is a property we're talking about now so I hope to make it great as possible since it is my first time. So far I am looking at nothing over $150k, based on what the lender said and I barely have a down payment with an FHA min. of 3.5%... My realtor says I most likely have to buy a single family home and won't be able to get a condo or duplex because of the FHA and my small down payment, so I guess my idea of that is out for now. I would still be happy with a good property with more bedrooms to rent out at least. So theres my Info and I hope to hear from some of you men and women, Im a newbie so please help me to know what I need to know, Thank you.
