@Marc Rice The best Real Estate Agents have trusted contacts who can get inspection items taken care of.

Currently i am getting up and running as a Real Estate Agent but i am extremely interested in pursuing other areas of real estate personally for real estate investments.As a Realtor i'm looking connect with the following people and experts :- Other Real Estate Agents - would even love to discuss mentorships if anyone has the time but if not just growing this community for me would be great.- Investors / Rehabbers - You never know when i will stumble across a fantastic deal - would love to be able to keep in touch and send you market updates from my area.

No Real Estate Agent license would be required.

I am hoping to connect with both investors as well as Real Estate agents in this area to understand the market better ( I have lived elsewhere for the past 10 years) as well as what areas may make most sense and with what strategy. 

I feel myself leaning more and more towards becoming an agent.

Best of luck in Knoxville, not sure I have investors in that market that could help, but I do know a couple of agents that could provide some perspective. 

I just pulled out an old amortization book that Fidelity published and gave out to us new agents.

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

It’s not because self-management hasn't worked, but rather because I’m looking to free up my time to scale my portfolio further and focus on some other time-intensive projects.If you’re managing from a distance, the key is building a local network you trust—contractors, handymen, leasing agents.
