In our opinion, an investor should only work with agents that meet at least one of the following:1) Own rentals themselves for at least 24 months2) Have a 3-5 year track record of rental transactions, that they can document3) Know how to calculate 1% Rule, ROI, NOI, etc.4) Have access to tired investors selling the rentalsHopefully, the agents you've been referred to meet one or more of these:)

Hi J,Personally not, but it looks like they have many reviews online so I would reference that.

What bedroom count are you referring to in this example a 1-bed unit or 2-bed unit? 

Even if someone has great credit, finances, and references, they can still turn out to be problematic.

We understand this can be challenging for our tenants, but we are planning for our children's future and teaching them about the REAL ESTATE benefits.Do any of you have suggestions as to how we can best approach this or can refer me to someone who can prepare a letter addressing our plans for the build?  

You might wholesale them, or refer them to a wholesaler for a cut of the deal if it closes. 

Do you check Landlord references?

I'd do an image search on google to get ideas. 

Hello - I'm looking for a PM in Fort Wayne/New Haven, Could you please let me know with whom you went with and your experiences, would you refer ?

Investors also talk to other investors, so if an agent is helping an investor find under value deals, they will most likely refer to other investors.
