Has anyone used BiggerPockets preferred agent feature?

[Taylor Dasch]

I have wasted quite a bit of money on trying to buy leads as a new RE agent, so in general, I am against it for this point in my career. However, I really like the idea of working with investors on this forum. Not sure if it would really produce a good ROI. Now that I type it out, I think I probably just need to try it and see if it works but any help would be greatly appreciated!
