Introduction and recommendation

[Joseph K.]

Hello everyone. I am a new member looking to invest in buy and hold residential real estate and small apartments in the Grand Rapids MI metro area (primarily Wyoming, Grandville, and Byron Center). I have spent a few months reading the articles and posts here at BP. It has answered quite a few questions I had from reading other sources. I have tracked properties on zillow etc and educated myself on my intended market. I am getting to the point were I will be willing to start making offers. So its good to make my first actual post.

I am looking for a recommendation for a realtor(s) with experience dealing with REI in the Grand Rapids MI area. I have recommendations from family and friends about the realtor they "liked" when buying there own house, but that does not mean that they would be the best for the investor.

Thanks in advance for those who post, Joe K.
