I can say I would not have had the confidence to purchase my MF had I not started out as an agent.Aside from experience & confidence, you gain access to the MLS which is the most reliable database (in my opinion) for running comps in your state. 

@Leland Smith I kind of second what @Gary Siver said........ sometimes there are contractors that aren't licensed that do better work and are more reliable than licensed, that being said that's not all that i would worry about....If you are doing any structural work, I would recommend you get someone licensed that can pull the permits or pull them yourself if they let you (its just better when you can justify at sale all the work was permitted and for tax purposes, you can have records of money that was paid out) .....

Good feelings should never be considered when screening, they are not reliable. 

Way more questions.I also would like to know if you have reliable contractors and a handy man????

Hello BPers, Can anyone recommend a reliable property management company in the St.

I need to find a Realtor who is also a REI, a reliable contractor, and a property manager both in DC and in Indianapolis.

New to real estate am trying to get my feet wet, not sure if the agent I am talking to now is going to be very reliable as he doesn’t always communicate or takes to long.
