Should I find a local agent or use a lawer?

A buddy of mine who invests out in Phoenix once had a client facing a similar timing mismatch on a rehab project.. they ended up working closely with a local credit union who was more open to interim valuations.

Even if you're in a local 50+ league and want to be competitive, a coach is probably over-kill.

Thanks so much for your advice for a local lender.

About me, most of my assets are RE but in another market so I would be diversifying in that market.Potential for appreciation is very uncertain: prices have risen a lot locally lately and are as high as they have ever been, and it’s unlikely higher prices would be affordable by locals.

Go to BUILD YOUR TEAM at the top of the screen and look for local investors or meetups in your area.

I live in Phoenix and my business partner and I put on a couple local forums for investors like yourself to network.

I’m not local, so I’m trying to get a feel for what it’s actually like making deals in this market right now.

Could you please recommend any local real estate agents?

Its always nice to hear positive things about local people.
