Real Estate Agent won't give direct advice on purchase price
So, I am entering a new market, and put together a team on the ground...I then took a trip out there, and my real estate agent took me to see houses. I thought she was great, organized, and well prepared to show me properties, and we ended up going into contract on a property.
I am now trying to buy more properties, and the problem I am having is that this agent seems to be uncomfortable recommending actual prices to me. She will run comps, and then when I ask for advice, she basically tells me she doesn't ever give price advice as houses are worth whatever someone is willing to pay.
I feel like the point of an agent is to offer this guidance, and have never run into this with any other agent I have worked with. I am happy with the rest of the process thus far...but curious of others thoughts? If I decide to go with a different agent, do I need to tell her? Is it bad to work with multiple agents at the same time?
