Investor and Agent Relationship

Good afternoon deal-makers!

I hope all of you are having a phenomenal day. I am starting out with REI, so I've spent most of my time reading and learning. I have been analyzing Delray Beach, FL for the last couple of weeks, and I feel I know enough to make educated guesses on deals on that market, all I need is an input of deals. I will go out there to knock some doors. However, I learned that I could also find an agent and ask him to create automatic alerts for what i am looking for in an specific area.

My question is about the relationship between an investor and an agent. I honestly don't know enough yet, so I will not probably make a deal in the next 2-3 months. Therefore, how can I provide value to them? I believe it takes little effort to do this, would they do it even if I'm not investing yet?  What is the "vibe" between new investors and agents? 

All the best,
