Recently, our real estate agent did a market analysis and estimates we can sell for between $575K-$585K, resulting in a net gain after all of our fees of about $100K.

I have spoken with a couple real estate agents and they are scared to let me have the agreement thinking they are breaking some kind of code of ethics letting me have it.

I am looking to grow my buy and hold rental portfolio and would love to network with other investors/agents/wholesalers etc.

Have your notified your insurance agent/company that you are no longer living in the property and that it's under renovation?

No agents involved.

Investors who are active in gathering data on local trends while working with knowledgeable agents are able to pick neighbourhoods poised for growth and also comprehend how to best mitigate their risks as they prepare to maximize their return.Myth 3: Distressed Properties Are in Bad LocationsAnother misconception is that distressed properties only exist in bad neighborhoods.

Quote from @Gregory Schwartz: A local agent recently got sued for calling an old client who was on the Do Not Call list.

If you do, I recommend you hire a real estate agent to help you lease up the units.

Even with that, I think we will still be way ahead. 2 bed, 1 bath, 1200sq/ft, detached 1 car garagePurchase Price: $38,000Repairs: $20,000ARV: $96,000 (based off Zillow, but a local real estate agent thought that was pretty accurate)Mortgage: $430Insurance: $55Trash Included: $25Rent: $1,000We are now going through applications for our first tenant. 

You'll also want to find a good Investor Agent, contractor, and property managers.
