127shtry127,

What is the condition of the property? Will you need to do any repairs?
Does the $35,000 purchase price include any repairs that need to be done?

I thank all of you very much for the posts. All of you bring some very good points to the discussion. Although all the information is excellent, I think wordbrd answered my question with the post referring to the services I can expect from a Realtor. You guys have given me something to think about. I appreciate all of your input.

Thanks again,

Pierre

Not all realtors are investors. I would expect most young and hungry Realtors not to recognize a good deal. I would expect most experienced Realtors to send their good deals to previous clients.

I don't know ... just my opinion. I have a few choices either go with a green Realtor that may not be able to get me the best deal or go with an experienced Realtor that will most likely guide me in the right direction but not offer any real deals.

What do you think?

Good Advice OcBroker.

I appreciate your input on this topic.

As a Realtor, if you were approached by a new investor, would you give that new investor some of those good deals or would you have some obligation to first run those properties by your investors (ie. past clients)?

As a REI, wouldn't you want to act on these very good deals?

I think this is why bluestarhomes chooses a young and hungry Realtor.

Very good input BlueStarHomes.

What did you look for in the Realtor other than being young and Hungry? Don't you want a Realtor with experience?

I will not fault you this time :D

I agree with you as well ... there are Realtors out there that just do as you said and don't waste their time to "help" someone if its not in their best interest, ie. commission. Some of these Realtors have been burn before. Working for little or no money is not fun most of the time. :D

How/What do I ask a Realtor to see if they are competent in investing? What qualities do you look for in a Realtor?

Jason - As a Realtor, What do you think your best qualities are?

Again thanks for your input

Pierre
