I want to bring on one more top agent and also hire another admin to take more work of my plate.On a personal side, we are going on 6 trips each year (sounds amazing, but I still work more days in a year than in my former corporate life, because I usually don't get weekends off).

Quote from @Michael Wentzel: Talk to your agent to ensure they're OK with it.

Think of it as the rough sketch that helps you figure out where you want to swim: Omaha’s stable single-family rentals with decent cash flow and strong appreciation potential, the sizzling up-and-coming pockets around San Antonio where off-market deals still lurk if you’re willing to roll up your sleeves, or those tight-knit Chicago neighborhoods where a trusted investor-friendly agent can point you to contractors who won’t ghost you mid-reno.

.- Check with your insurance agent ASAP.You'll need to file a claim and get a claim number.Try to get an insurance adjustor in ASAP, so you can start pumping water out, removing all water damaged drywall and get dehumidifiers in. - Note: the insurance company's adjustor will try to minimize your claim amount.

I just got done with my required annual commission update for 2024 (I know I’m a slacker, I waited until the very end of the year lol) and the teacher of the class said that a high percentage of the number of agents who had their licenses revoked in 2024 were the result of being involved in subject to transactions that went sideways.

Trying to assemble a team of investor friendly agent possibly in the Craven County area. 

Find an agent with a team that you can build a longterm working relationship with that will make sure you won't overpay for a property and overall will land you an actual deal.

So many, please message me for details Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?

I appreciate all of the detail but what information was provided to the agent that wrote the policy?  

Met my buy criteria and work as my own agent.
