An investor-friendly agent will be able to help you locate these areas.

I have been an investor agent in Oceanside for a while now.

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.

Yes it poses challenges, but a good agent can steer you away from all of this. 

Asking for a friend who was told by his PM (reputable) to ignore it and that most investors don't bother to get their Grandview properties inspected/registered with the city. 

They can also give you a better idea of how much you should be prepared to pay so you can cruise through your closing with confidence.And as you plan ahead for closing day, be sure to budget for your real estate agent’s professional service fee too, in case the seller doesn’t cover it.

@Stuart Udis your absolutely right, as far as the market my biggest issue is that I don’t know that area very well and neither does the agent that is helping me.

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.

I am creating a LLC in MD and am looking for a Resident Agent.

She would be putting all the cash down for the property and I'm a contractor and would take care of all of the rehab work along with finding the house, dealing with real estate agent etc. how can we make it so that it would be 50-50 ownership of the property and all future profit?
