A long time ago, in a smoked filled card room off a dark alley on a back street in Vegas, a wise man said to me, "If you've been playing poker for half an hour and you still don't know who the patsy is at the table, you should stop gambling and go look in the mirror."

If you find a great broker/agent they can find you the deals.If you have a lazy broker/agent they can cost you and make you lose out on deals.BIGGEST MISTAKE you can make in my opinion is buying in the wrong area and paying too much going in for a property.Especially starting out you need that capital to perform and grow at maximum potential to take advantage of low interest rates and favorable market pricing.If you buy right you have a jumping off platform for other properties.If you buy wrong you have a mistake they can stifle your investing for years.If you think competition is bad now wait in a few years when all the news channels say real estate is on the rise again causing a run up in pricing.
