I was just thinking, as a realtor, I will sometimes just drive through neighborhoods that I like and sometimes, I will see a Pods container or a moving truck, or people working - If I see that, I will normally go knock on the door and introduce myself to see if they are making a move or not.

@Eli Kantor You can’t bring in another agent if he has an exclusive agency listing agreement and an exclusive buyer agency with her and on top of that he was the one to introduce the property to her.

Hi all,I am new to the real estate world and my primary purpose in posting this is to introduce myself to fellow investors and agents in the area.

The key is to do what you just did, and introduce yourself to the community.

Back when a similar regulation was introduced in another city I worked in, I remember a client who nearly had a deal derailed because of unexpected delays.

Realtors do this every day.. this is not an uncommon experience.. just ask one who has dealt with a listing that is going through a divorce.. the really hairy ones for me is when I bought at court house steps  and then go to the door to introduce myself as the new owner..

I don't want to have to introduce them to a new workflow for submitting maintenance requests (e.g. now log into latchel).

Just ask all of the investors who have been burnt over the past few years as legislation has rapidly been introduced. 

This has the dual benefit of helping you stay informed on what’s going on in your local market and knowing all the new members who introduce themselves from College Station, and also every single one of those 660 posts is now an “SEO” post - every time someone googles a thread that’s come up, your name and business appear in these forums, alongside your quality answers. 

I’m thrilled to introduce myself!
