for me it was income potential of earning commissions instead of salary.so at 18 I got my RE license.. and while it was a bit of a chore getting going as it is for most agents..

(ii) Can anyone recommend an agent in the Philadelphia area who specializes in apartment buildings? 

I am in Florida and not many agents that I have met do that. 

Chris, I work full time remote and specialize in land.

Investors can fast-track their timelines and boost ROI, while agents can use these streamlined rules as a selling point to attract development-minded buyers.In Carlsbad, SB-423 projects are allowed in residential or mixed-use zones near urban areas, with 75% of the site’s perimeter needing to border developed spaces like homes or businesses.

Quote from @Amanda Nelson: Hello - I found a very compelling investment property and the agent and her preferred lender are suggesting that the VA loan currently on the property is assumable by a real estate investor.

A well connected agent can also tap into their network.. for instance, probate attorneys might know of people seeking short-term solutions.

Hey Noah, you could connect with agents who've built a large network of deal flow.

@Drake BackmanBigger Pockets is a great place to find a tax strategist specializing in real estate taxation.A good real estate tax strategist can save you thousands of dollars by leveraging entity selection and formation, tax deductions, cost segregations, bonus depreciation and tax planning.I recommend finding a tax  strategist specializing in real estate taxation, business taxation, financial planning and tax planning.Consider working with your tax strategist remotely to expand your options.I would also recommend looking for a tax strategist willing to work with you throughout the year.
