Is your agent helping you?

Personally, I like option #1 (I know a lot of agents will push you to #2 as that's how they make commission), but it helps in keeping an asset and using that capital to buy something more productive.

Hi Adam, always looking to connect with new investors and agents.

Hi Luz, @Mason Weiss is an awesome agent here in the valley.

Talk and connect with pros, other investors, people who lend money, agents, and builders to get great tips and chances to work together.

Before making any decisions, review the information provided by San Francisco's Office of Short-Term Rentals website, consult with local experts such as real estate agents or property management companies that specialize in STR.

They would not act as the buyers real estate agent, they just want 6% as the procurement agent.

I give new agents or those desiring to get into real estate lists to call and then buy the deals they find. it works well. 

You need someone who specializes in IRS representation and holds one of the two designations: EA (Enrolled Agent) or CPA.

Either way, I can help you find an excellent agent in any market in the country.
