Question: Get more than 1 RE agent for different areas/markets?

I'm looking in various markets for real estate opportunities, and curious how you handle real estate agent relationships. For example if one market is in Houston and you get one in the city but start looking outside the city, like about an hour or 2 out, would you find another agent for that search? 

I'm also considering, Pacific Northwest, which is clear you need a different agent there. But if I was to start looking in San Antonio (3hrs away from Houston), that would also call for another agent relationship right? 

I guess what would be a single agent relationship range/proximity for you guys?

Different agents. Yes, I can say, "I'm a Texas Realtor", but I don't know the San Antonio market the way I know Houston. Find the expert and investor friendly Realtor in that area. I would advise going to that market and attend a real estate event and make a connection with someone in that area because they might also know some good wholesalers in the area and they can connect you with them. Build that team, keep it going =)
