Benefits of investor friendly realtor.

I'm going to be flipping houses in the near future, have funding for first project, contractors lined up, and a LLC set up, etc. The question I have is, "What benefits should I be able to expect from an investor friendly realtor, and how do I find one?" Any input is appreciated. Thanks

I'd say I'm an investor friendly realtor.

Here's what I do personally.

Find homes, visit them to get a ball park repair cost. I then send an email to the investor with the listing, comps and targeted arv.  If asked, I'll share my ballpark repair cost and recommendation for repairs but most experienced investors don't need repair info from me.  Then I list it and sell it.

BTW, It helps your agent a great deal to know how much spread you need to consider a home a worthy investment. A % of arv is enough for me.  I don't want to waste my time sending you a home you won't or can't buy.
