There are tons of people out there looking to take advantage of inexperienced real estate investors

There are lots of inexperienced agents out there.  

I can smell a deal, but my inexperienced mind can not piece it together.

I am very curious as to know how they react to heat, like if somebody put a hot tea pot or frying pan down on the counter. 

These are not for inexperienced investors, in my opinion, and the seller carries a significant risk which they should be fully explained to them before embarking.

Is it worth trying to groom an inexperienced agent for your needs?

I am new to REI but that is the one issue I don't have, we are in the construction business, and  know firsthand what problems deceptive or  inexperienced contractors can cause- even to other contractors.BestRachael

I hope you can understand my question but as I really am inexperienced, I don't know enough yet to even know if the question makes sense. 

After being around this stuff for 40+ years, being involved in more aspects than I can mention, having suffered in the world of academia as well as the school of hard knocks, doesn't take me long to spot the fakes, the wannabe, the shyster, the inexperienced, the honest student, those with integrity and knowledge or the real professionals.

An inexperienced lender, crowdfunder, etc. could easily cause a lot of problems to developer/builders, if they don't know what they are doing and slow a job down.
