Thank you @Marina Wong, @Matt and @Carl Gentile. Its been very helpful to hear from you all! Lots of great insight as I figure out what is the best path forward for me. 

Thank you @Abel Curiel, @Eddie Egelston, @Maria D'Aura and @Jonathan Killam for your thoughts! I really appreciate them. 

Hello Bigger Pockets community! 

I just received my real estate license in Massachusetts and plan on attaining my New Hampshire license soon, since I live right on the boarder of MA and NH. I was wanting to get some advice from those within the Bigger Pockets community since most real estate agent education is focused around helping people purchase primary residents. 
I'm more interested in helping investors as my niche and would love to hear from both agents and investors on a couple questions.

Agents:
1. As I am interviewing brokerages, with the goal of being investor focused, what questions should I be asking?

2. What do you suggest for resources (besides Bigger Pockets) on being an investor friendly agent?

Investors:
1. When looking to add an agent to your team, what do you look for? 

2. What would an "ideal" agent look like to you? 

I look forward to reading your responses and feel free to add any other advice you wish you would have known when you were first getting started (as and agent). 

I sure hope this becomes an annual event (PLEASE!) I'm not sure I can make this year, but I would VERY much look forward to the next one!

Hey Peter, Welcome to the BP community! Dmitriy gave you some great advice to start with, glad to have you here with us, SO much great information here!

Hi David, you are in the right place! I'm a newbie myself and have learned so much from the podcasts, forms and books (BRRRR by David Green and Managing rental properties by Brandon and Heather Turner so far). Any questions I've had, I'll search and find SO many great answers!

Glad to have you here with us and I look forward to sharing the journey.

@Tyler Kress this is a fantastic post with well thought out questions. I look forward to reading everyone's response. 

@Terrell Garren, this is SO helpful to see it simplified in that way, thank you for laying it out like that! And I love how it ended up your wife's idea in the end! Haha! 

@Scott Schultz fantastic advice, thank you for sharing your experience, it's so valuable to us "newbies" to hear from those who are doing it well.

@Steve Vaughan "Hobby landlords with just a few rentals tend to be the most beaten up and are one of my greatest sources of motivated sellers" I could see how that would be the case...I'm not sure I've thought of it in those terms, thank you for your wisdom here!

Loved the video @Brandon Turner! Your beard sure has grown over the last few years ;) 
Very excited to be working through the beginners guide and putting together my plan. 
I can't believe something like BiggerPockets exists, I've been like a kid in a candy store since I found it!
