Hi BP friends-Newbie here looking for a recommendation for a top-notch agent to help me and my wife find our next primary residence.  

So my perspective is to figure out what actions done will actually move you one notch forward.

The people here have proven to he top notch and the amount of information is se one to none.

We purchased 3 houses in January and are up to 27 so far.BP has helped us find:PartnersActive buyersActive sellersGreat friendsExcellent networking opportunitiesThe people and the resources available at BP are top notch, and there are just no excuses anymore for not getting started.

If you have the 20%, I personally would not negotiate on that, giving the seller a notch in the negotiation win column but ask for other things like longer term or lower rates, possibly even principle only payments.What is a good rate?

You need top notch SEO and content to win in that arena. 

Depends on how busy you are - for a few extra thousand you can hire a top notch crew - get the job done effortlessly and move on especially if you have a high cost of funds.

The quality of their cabinets is top notch as well.

The caliber of the group is top notch and the heart of the founders is second to none. 

I want someone who is top notch and specializes in what I need to have done.
