🔥 Yes Trevor. talked to few agents,lenders,contractors, and checking out the properties, trying to figure the good contractor and deals as well.

Whether you're an investor looking for opportunities abroad, an agent working with international clients, or a developer seeking foreign buyers, having the right network and knowledge is essential. 

Any reputable turn key encourages inspections.

It's also helpful to consult a local real estate agent to understand market trends, including demand, vacancy rates, and rental growth patterns.

Do you guys have any advice on how can I get started in my real estate journey as an agent and potentially an investor??

I'm a young agent and investor and in no way saying I've made it and have more experience / knowledge than many of those leaders on here.

As an agent, I've worked with multiple wholesalers, novations, subto, etc. 

Traditional financial planners make the bulk of their income from commissions on stocks and bonds, so real estate will often times get dumped into an "other" category that doesn't get the proper attention.In my experience, we did receive a lot of help from real estate agents that are able to help us with our upcoming transaction, HOWEVER, they aren't setup to support the overall plan design in a way that was centered around the most important financial kpis.  

And rarely will you net as much or more from an investor than you would from  listing with an agent.Interveiw agents commissins are negotiable so negotiate those.. and these are very simple transactions so any competent attorney can reveiw the contract etc..

My RE investment strategy is BRRRR for multifamily units paired with Section 8.If you are contractor, property manager, real estate agent or anyone knowledgeable about Section 8 feel free to message me or refer me to anyone you know.
