Aloha from Maui - New form member intro

[Mitch Tempo]

Hi everyone, my name is Mitch Tempo, a Realtor at Keller Williams Realty Maui.  First post on here, and just wanted to introduce myself to everyone out here.  I'm born and raised on he island of Maui, and have been a real estate agent now for 4 years.  Looking to better myself in understanding more what different investors wants and needs are.  

What are some of the things you are looking information wise when deciding to purchase an investment property?  ie: what information is a must have for you to make a fast decision on whether to buy or pass on a sale?

Welcome @Mitch Tempo to the best REI forum out there!

I want to acknowledge that you are looking to better yourself where most realtors lack. I think being able to work with investors and offer meaningful investment advice will bring your career to new heights. 

• Have you thought of investing yourself? (I think this will offer valuable insight to the process and make you wealthy in the meantime:)

There are many things investor look for. It depends on the investment, commercial v.s. residential. I think just being able to bring good deals to your clients and closing the deal are on top of the list. 

• Are you confident yourself to run numbers on investment properties? Or do you know the areas cold where you are a realtor? 

Sitting down with your clients beforehand and getting clear on their needs is a good way to start building relationships. 

Good luck Mitch!
