5 Reasons why you should hire a Realtor when you Invest!
We have heard a few people say that they would never hire a Realtor to invest, that’s a waste of money, and that they are going to stay with their full piece of the pie, while that’s their train of thought, it’s not something we think should be the norm, there are many reasons why this the wrong mindset to have whenever you invest!
1- Expertise!
Realtors have trained to know how the business work, their life is dedicated to knowing the market, where it’s rising, where it’s dying, and while as an investor you can find out those specific things as well, it would never be the same, since they have many tools to know how, where, and when to do it! Also, a Realtor that has worked with Investors in the past will most likely have the means and the ways to sell the property you want to flip in a shorter span of time, they work, and their work should be attributed!
2- Timely!
When you are working with Real Estate, time is money and the more time you have with a property you could be losing money, so by working with a Realtor, you are ending that wait way faster, and in a more timely manner so you can have more time to focus on finding more deals to invest in, therefore making your time more valuable!
3- Delegating!
Being busy is fun, we get it, we love having many projects going on, but being busy comes with its issues, time again is extremely important in this business and delegating certain parts of your business to someone of your trust will help you be more successful in the path you are taking, and not only Realtors will help with that, but they could be an awesome partner in business for networking with other investors!
4- Reputation!
A good agent will have a good reputation among other investors, and this is key, as we have covered in past, reputation in this business is incredibly important and necessary for your business, it’ll help to get new referrals, new properties, new clients, which is absolutely amazing when you are building a portfolio, so don’t dismiss having a Realtor at any point, they bring clients, and get work done!
5- Honesty!
There’s a ton of shady people in any business, and sometimes in Real Estate, there’s a misconception of dishonesty, when in our experience whenever we have worked with an incredibly talented and business-driven Realtor for our investments, the process has been honest and it has moved fast enough. Our biggest recommendation to go around finding a Realtor for your future business is: find one you’re comfortable with, ask questions, and don’t be scared to try them out! This goes for many things in the business, but don’t knock working with a Realtor for your Investments until you have tried it and found one that works perfectly with you!
