Tips for a real estate agent working with investors

Andrew Wayne
Posted

When working with a real estate agent what are some things that you expect as an investor that you wouldn't necessarily expect when buying a primary residence. What are some things that an agent has done that were helpful or set them apart that exceeded your expectations? 

Thanks

What would exceed my expectations? 

(a) Knowing multiple contractors for bringing a home up to market ready (so I could get multiple bids on a single project), or 

(b) After knowing my price range, knowing the rent rates for the neighborhoods of those properties to create a short list of props to consider

(c) Being willing to share MLS access in exchange for them being my Buyer's agent

(d) Consistent follow-up, even if it's just to say that they haven't heard anything and they've reached back out to whomever

(e) Knowing local lenders who will offer mortgages on Properties #5-10
