You could also engage the services of a buyer’s agent.

I already have proof of concept in Raleigh as Ive talked to multiple people (including the agent Im working with there) saying airbnb-ing rooms is a cash cow there. 

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

With the help of an investor-friendly agent How did you finance this deal?

You would expect a clean title at close so if there is some issue, then either it would be resolved by the seller or the deal would fall through.

Any recommendations when it comes to: - Real estate agents we should work with? 

I'm an investor and agent in VB happy to talk through your strategies sometime.

Any tips on finding an agent? 

To make matters worse, not everything is listed on an MLS like in the US; many agents keep listings to themselves, which makes the market more opaque. 

Good evening BP world,I am looking to make some contacts, specifically RE agents and hands-on investors in the phoenix area, in order to start acquiring some value add SFH investment properties.
