How many Realtors should and investor have?

[Gregorio Martinez]

Is it best to have more than 1 realtor searching for properties for you? What if they go on vacation? What are good qualities of a good realtor?

[Corbin Marcotte]

As an agent that specializes in working with investors, I personally have multiple agents that know my investment criteria that will bring me deals first because of my established relationship with them. Therefore I believe you should have multiple  agents that know you and have a good relationship with you and be loyal to whoever brings the deal. I have many investors that I have worked with and I know that if another agent brings them something good then they are going to do the right thing and have that agent compensated. This will turn many agents off from wanting to work with you. Those are probably agents that you don't want to work with anyway. In Rich Dad Poor Dad it says something like, there are 1 in 1000 agents that are investors themselves and they are probably the ones you want to work with.
