Hi @William Taylor, As an agent and investor, I have a few suggestions. 

You really have to learn the neighborhoods or work with a sales agent who does.

Their target audience are professionals with cash don't don't have the time or desire to become educated and are willing to pay/forgo some revenue for a experienced investment relations firm. 

Most will be licensed (as agents/brokers) in their states.

Hi Joshua, I am an investor friendly agent.

Syracuse is definitely experiencing a lot of hype at the moment because of Micron, and we're seeing lots of renovated options on the market in areas that likely won't benefit from the new campus.

Investors who are active in gathering data on local trends while working with knowledgeable agents are able to pick neighbourhoods poised for growth and also comprehend how to best mitigate their risks as they prepare to maximize their return.Myth 3: Distressed Properties Are in Bad LocationsAnother misconception is that distressed properties only exist in bad neighborhoods.

An agent is not guaranteeing you a purchase or a sale.  

And it would for real estate investors, agents and brokers, lenders, etc.
