I am an agent here in Memphis that works with savvy investors.

As a real estate agent, I have helped clients who didn't live in the area find homes and land.

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

My goal is to help property owners navigate management challenges while ensuring their investments are well taken care of.I’d love to hear from experienced investors about what’s working in the Charleston market and share insights as I gain more hands-on experience.

(Foreign to the state, not the nation)  Furthermore, they typically require you to have a registered agent. 

Being an agent I knew the market and the potential it had.

Would it be wise to use a HELOC on our current residence to use for a down payment on a new propertyHi David, as someone who works with a lot of OOS investors, I would let you know that most of the clients I work with have never physically visited when buying their first investment property - the most important thing is working with a great investor agent and doing proper due diligence.

Just remember anyone who has acted as your employee, attorney, accountant, investment banker or broker, or real estate agent or broker within the 2-year period ending on the date of the transfer of the first of the relinquished properties is considered your agent and is disqualified from being your QI.So definitely ask them for recommendations but they cannot act as your QI on the exchange. 

I would recommend working with a good investor agent who can help with all of this!

I am a RI Native and also an investor-friendly agent.
