Realtor Isn't Being Helpful in Finding Properties
I have worked with a realtor on several deals over the past few years, including commercial properties. I told her that I am looking into flipping houses (all cash deals), and when she sends me the MLS listings she mixes in good properties with distressed ones. I have told her what I need. Either she doesn't know what fix 'n' flips are, or she is not willing to filter the properties.
Whose job is it to do that? Should she send me whatever she finds in my area and then I need to calculate what the fixed-up values would be and see if it's a good deal, or is that her job? In a hot market like Denver, her commissions for the purchase and sales is pretty high, and I would hope that that would be her job. Am I wrong?
