Question for Investment Real Estate Agents

What are the (realistic) qualities of a good client?

We are ready to start investing in real estate and will be looking for an agent. We want to make sure we are the kind of client that a great agent wants to work with. Thanks for your thoughts.

1) Clear and realistic guidelines for what they want & don't want (If you tell me find me a good deal, I don't know what that means to you)

2) Decisive & Honest (Tell me specifically why you like or don't like a deal) 

3) Professional ( treat everyone in the transaction respectfully, do what you you are going to do)

4) Respectful of agents time ( don't ask me to shotgun low ball offers, or give me busy work with comps, that's an amateur move)

5) Committed & ready to close ( If I meet your criteria & present pull the trigger & close)

6) Generous (If I am rewarded for finding a great deal for you , if you start trying to be cheap & re-negotiate fees I'm out)
