Should you use an agent

[Rodney Thompson]

I have been listening to BP, and I hear some investors bring their agent in when the investor finds a "for sale by owner," and some don't. What is everyone's consensus regarding bringing in an agent?

I agree @John Thedford . I can see the value in having that knowledge at the table. I hear a lot about the core-four concept but wasn't sure when each of those became important to have. Reading about these important professional components of a deal, I can see where they are all necessary. I'm guessing that early on new investors may not have specific individuals picked out to be on the "core-four," but as I work with different professionals I will start to know who I want on that team. Thanks!
