Hello, can someone recommend an agent that deals with novations in indianapolis

Find a real estate attorney in your area, ask them to draft a contract for you, if that's what you want. 

I learned about them from a Rent to Retirement podcast where they interviewed a former W2 FT sales guy in tech (that's me today...) turn real estate investor.

I am a real estate agent trying to make new connections that is looking into property investing in the future. 

You can also check meetup.com or search Facebook for real estate investment groups, clubs, or meetings in your area.

Population decline has slowed, and key neighborhoods are seeing real growth.

@Jacob HavlovickBigger Pockets is a great place to find a real estate tax accountant.A good real estate accountant can save you thousands of dollars by leveraging entity selection and formation, tax deductions, cost segregations, bonus depreciation and tax planning.I recommend finding an accountant who specializes in real estate taxation, business taxation, financial planning and tax planning.You may want to consider working with your accountant remotely to expand your options.I would also recommend looking for a accountant willing to work with you throughout the year.

Right now, I am an aspiring real estate agent specializing in investment properties while also in the process of developing an app!

Network through real estate groups.
