Recommendations for a Real Estate Agent and Lender in Salem, OR

[Benjamin Rosemont]

My wife and I are looking to house hack and we have found a property we think could meet our needs (we have yet to see it, though). We need to find a real estate agent and a lender. When we requested to view the property, an agent reached out to us and also recommended a lender. Both the agent and lender have excellent reviews. What should we be looking for in an agent and lender when it comes to house hacking? 

Thank you!
