ISO of an Investor friendly agent!

[Stephen Bruce]

Hello to all!

I am a new member to BP and a new real estate investor as well. I have one rental property and am in the works of acquiring my second! I am in search of an agent who knows the BRRR market very well. I am located out of Greenville, SC. I am interested in doing work anywhere along I-85 north from Atlanta to Charlotte. I have read through countless post and never found anyone from this area, so please if you are from here, know the area, whatever, Id love to connect and see if we could grow together.

Thanks in advance!

Hey @Stephen Bruce, welcome to the BP community!

I know there are quite a few investor-focused agents here in Atlanta. I stay away from the term investor "friendly" because any agent can label themselves as this simply because they're open to working with investors. What you really want is someone who is experienced working with investors and this is their focus. 

Sounds like what you need is not just an investor-focused agent but one who understands distressed properties and rehab (at least at a high level) and has some kind of access to off-market properties. You won't find many properties on the market here that make sense for a BRRRR and this is especially true when looking in the I-85 corridor.

Keep asking around forums like BiggerPockets and you'll find what you're looking for. Unfortunately, the search feature on here is less than poor so just because that doesn't turn up what you're looking for doesn't mean it isn't on here. In fact, here is a new post that just popped in my notifications and would probably be a good place for you to start. Make sure you have your keywords set up so that you will also be notified when posts like this come up. 

Hope this helps a bit! Please, feel free to reach out anytime if you have other questions or just want to chat about the Atlanta market!
