New to Columbia, SC...Help!

[Quynn Costello]

My girlfriend and I have just moved to the Columbia, SC area (Richland County) and we are ready to hit the ground running on some residential real estate! We have flipped mobile homes in the past in other states, but are looking to get into more "stick home" investing here in South Carolina. We have already found a few interesting deal prospects, both on and off market, and are really interested in finding a local real estate agent/broker who shares our knowledge and passion for investing. Any BP'ers have any advice for how to find a rockstar like that in a new area?? Or anyone have any recommendations of RE agents or brokers they have worked with here? Any help is greatly appreciated, let's connect!!
