@Ashish Chauhan I have a client who I am working with right now here is the strategy they employed. Go to Zillow or similar home search website that reports who the listing and selling agent was for past closed transactions.  Look up your desired zip codes. Make a list of the agents who have sold duplexes, run down ratty homes, and fix & flip deals in those zip codes. You should come up with a list of 30-50 agents. Inevitably you will have several agents who consistently appear on the list. If you have to choose between buyers agent or listing agent go with the agent who shows up on the list the most as a buyers agent. 

Now you have to put on your salesperson hat. Reach out to that agent setup a lunch or coffee and give them your elevator pitch. You need to sell the agent on your ability to close, ability to purchase without a bunch of hassle and offer a promise to relist with that agent if it is a fix and flip. Repeat this process until one of these agents is willing to work with you.

There are many strategies to finding an agent and far more strategies to finding great investment properties to purchase. I hope this nugget works in your search!
