Ohio - Real Estate Agent Referral

[Ananeya Abebe]

Hello All,

I am a newbie on BiggerPockets and looking to invest in my first out of state property in Ohio. I am particularly looking within the Shaker Heights area. I currently live in the Washington DC Metro Area and looking forward to networking with folks here.

I am currently looking for referrals for real estate agents that would be able to be my eyes and ears as an out of state investor. The original agent that I had really didn’t meet my needs (e.g., lack of adequate communication, didn’t take initiative on listings, made mistakes on purchase agreements and hoped that it would’ve been overlooked).

Given that I am an out of state investor I am looking for someone I can build trust with and that can reassure a long-standing partnership. Any recommendations on reputable real estate agents?
