I've stuck to the strategy of finding properties myself and then reaching out to the listing agent and look for dual agency.

What's funny is when I made my offer I used the driveway as leverage, telling the selling agent (who ended up being the dual agent and received a nice commission) I'd have to have it paved back further so multiple cars would fit.

Aargh.Pricing similar sized dual heat pump/gas backups for the house next door to the first one put me at around $7,000 with a certified installer. 

I believe you can pick out 3-phase by looking at the high voltage lines - this are the ones with the stacked ceramic insulators. 

I consistently find properties for my clients that meet the dual goals of profitability and appreciation through processes and an investment team.

Now, Dual Agency is a tricky business.

Hi Keith,Do you know how to install security systems or run low voltage wiring?

It's dual purpose.

I've heard that dual agency poses some risks - do you feel like agents are generally pretty balanced when this comes into play or is it something that the buyer would need to actively look out for on their end?
