I want to keep away from any short cuts , I am not looking to take large cuts from sellers (I’m a true agent at heart and looking to serve my clients) .

Building a network of agents, contractors, and lenders who understand cash flowing rentals and the BRRRR model will be key as you continue to scale.

In state of OH can a real estate agent be a property manager too?

@Paul Bogard Any real estate agent who promotes themselves as an agent who is a specialist on renting out bedrooms should be moved to the bottom of the list of people to take real estate advice from..... 

You may have to pay an agent to make all these lowball offers, otherwise they may get tired of you wasting their time.3) What can you do to your current house to generate cashflow now or more in the future:- Finish the basement as a separate unit? 

They are often for sale by owner, because they did not like what the 3 agents told them about the value of their property, so they decide they are just greedy agents and list is FSBO for 100k more.

I’m a real estate agent based in the vibrant Bay Area, specializing in helping clients find their perfect homes or investments.

This agent of your didn't play any part in finding this property for you. 

I fix and flip, working with contractors, agents, cash lenders, I sometimes wholesale.

The broker will split it up among his/her leasing agent and the tenant's rep.
