Find another property manager if they don’t like or respect the terms of that arrangement This.You are the property owner, not the agent.

Hi, I am Canadian, and I am not a registered agent, but interested in seller finance, so my question is can I talk to sellers directly or I have to do this through an agent that represents me? 

Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?

Whether you get access through an agent or other means, it’s crucial for finding the best deals quickly.These tools offer a mix of free and paid features that can be tailored to your investing needs.

The subject line says it all... for all you CRE agents out there, what have you done to prospect for new clients!?

Soon, there will be a ton of posts below from agents in Columbus and Cleveland to "help" you, but you already know where you want to be.I wouldn't be thinking STR for Ohio unless you are doing woodsy, which can work, but the table stakes are high on those (swimming holes, saunas, game rooms, hot tubs).

There are turnkey companies or platforms like Roofstock that assist investors in doing so or you can contact property management companies or look for investor friendly real estate agents in that market to assist you.

I suggest checking out some of the local Chicago meetups:  https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/521-real-estate-events-...I'd also recommend setting up some coffee meetings with some of the TOP TALENT in Chicago: agents like @Jake Fugman & @John Warren and property managers like @Mark Ainley & @Krystyna Schexnayder and lenders like @Jose Valdovinos & @Zack Karp.
