A realtor doing high volume, you don't have to use one you can poll 3-5 agents see what they do to get you the comps and then pick that person to help you.

When you start, the company may give you a small existing portfolio, but then you'll have to maintain & grow it to make a decent living.You could also work as a leasing agent at an apartment complex.

The best deals I find are usually due to agent negligence of the area and a very poor listing presentation.

Quote from @Alexandra Helms: @Dziko ThundeHere is a video published by a local agent (though I believe he actually moved out of the area) a couple of years ago that you might find helpful - "https://youtu.be/LPNIl_vLkWc?

HI @David SohnSituation 1: You don't pay for your brokers fee:In this situation you are not paying for a buyers agent and they would be paid via the seller.

Generally local agents have one purpose, to sell.

Although I see this person has now morphed into just being a real estate agent as i suspect he was letting way too much business slip through his hands just trying to be a wholesaler.. 

I would be interested in connecting for the Washington team position for both purchasing agent and professional property management.

The owners at the time were directed to our Real Estate agent and she showed us the property as it was a good investment opportunity.How did you finance this deal?

I also have some investor agents that send me off market deals via email on a weekly basis – which are also good to practice deal analysis.
