Looking for a Seasoned Realtor in Property Investment

Rental Property Investor · Houston, TX · Member since 2019 · 4 posts · 1 vote

Hello my fellow BP Fam, I am looking for a seasoned realtor with excellent knowledge of the Texas property investment environment. How to find good deals, unconventional financing options etc.

I have made many avoidable mistakes, partly by working with realtors who could careless about educating the investor on how/what to buy or not buy. It was mainly about making a sale. I need a person with a passion for making meaningful sales and building a mutually beneficial lifelong rapport with their investors. I win / you win!

I can really use a mentor as well. It is rather unfortunately that I can't build these relationships organically via
networking face2face as I currently work overseas.

I appreciate serious and genuine postulations in advance.

Hi Stella,

You are completely right. Most agents are not specifically investment agents and want to buy and sell quickly, which allows them to make more.

Most of my clients have become good friends, as I truly believe most on BP are like-minded individuals and all want the same thing... freedom through wealth via RE investing. I can connect you with them if you would like.

I am also happy to do a virtual call or speak with you about the areas of town that I am personally invested in, as well as those that are gentrifying that I look to invest within the next year. Hopefully we can learn something from one another!

Best wishes,

Holly

Hello @Stella Mitchell,

Your experience is a common one. Most Realtors are out the business within 5 years. With that said, most of them are looking to quickly sell their next house while the minority look to build long-term relationships.

The good news is you're a BP member and you're getting active on the forums! I'd recommend you use the 'search' function to find topics, members and areas of interest.

You can also set up keyword alerts to receive notifications once a topic or area of interest in mentioned in one of the forums. Its a great way to stay current and connect with your future team members.

I know face to face meetups aren't happening at the moment but you can check out the Events tab at the top to find local and virtual meet ups.

Lastly, you should connect with @Kobe Xin ... He is a local Real Estate Agent!

Best of luck to you moving forward!

"I am looking for a seasoned realtor with excellent knowledge of the Texas property investment environment. How to find good deals, unconventional financing options etc."
1) Do you know what you want as far as prop type and location?
2) Have you got your money together?
3) Do you understand a "good" deal when you see one or are you going to trust the broker?
Get your resume together and look for a broker that specializes in the prop types you're looking for. Make sure you can show the wherewithal to close a deal. Brokers see you have no funds and you'll see no callbacks.

@Stella Mitchell Start with filling out your own profile first. Many investors when they are looking for something, they forget they need to atleast make an effort to share who are they and what's the current situation and what they want to achieve. By putting their profile together, it will help any experienced realtors/broker to look and see how they can help you.
If you are looking for an experienced realtor/agent, you also need to show that you are willing to share your side of the story and start the relationship to work as team for the betterment of both to achieve together.
