Soliciting 2nd opinions vs acting fast

[Gary Dezoysa]

I'm going to work with an investor friendly agent in a cash flow market. I am out of area. I was thinking about whether to take the agent's recommendation, run it through a police report website, check school ratings, biggerpockets neighborhood ratings, and take action. OR, solicit second opinions, wait a bit more for replies, and then buy.

I think it comes down to how fast agents expect you to move. Do you guys have any opinion on which deal verification method I should do before moving onto the next step (paying for an inspection)?
