And from a "increase your cash situation" you could be the manager after sale, so you can not only profit on the sale, but retain cash flow from managing the STR as well.Many resort towns have agencies like this.  

@Kate Lee Every state is different so I don’t know how it works in TX, but here in CO the agent/client relationship goes like this: unless there is an agency agreement in place you are a technically a customer and we’re not supposed to advise you or advocate on your behalf.

That’s why I didn’t go mainstream, just social.

Go through your MLS when a home gets listed, call the agent, probably stick to smaller agencies, and call agents and ask. 

Can they report me to credit agencies and hurt my credit?

Otherwise obviously do a credit report run and contact each of the three reporting agencies in order to have them removed it reflecting incorrectly.

Does anyone know of a website (perhaps of another agency) that displays information pulled from the MLS?

@Andy Lanyi Dual agency can be weird but I don't think you have much to be worried about.

I would look for the agency with the most reach.

Experience is less relevant if you're using bridge financing, but the agencies generally like to see that you've been a sponsor on at least one (1) previous agency loan.
