I would prefer to go directly to the sellers broker to avoid having any communication issues as things often get interpreted incorrectly and too much back and forth can ruin a deal.

Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, etc.) could be a great way to network and communicate with an audience interested in real estate investing.

I represented my self to save the buyers agency commission, and kept constant communication with the listing agent.

Lack communication skills3.

Appreciate you humor and serious contribution to the perception of OP to communicate at clear truth about what's being said ...

Do they communicate with you about being late?

@Liz Collier Check out @David Pere's 5-part series on the VA Home Loan on his YouTube channel - From Military To Millionaire.

I was hoping meeting bi weekly with or monthly with specific topics on the agenda communicated prior to meeting so get the most of our time and forces us to do research.

If you loose a deal don't blame the Realtor, most lost deals are because of decisions the investor makes, YOU  make the decisions not the realtor.KNOW YOUR NUMBERS, Don't expect your Realtor to estimate repairs for you, know what a contractor charges or what your lender will charge you for a loan.You and your realtor are like a pitcher and catcher, if you are not communicating ALL OF THE TIME, the other team wins.ROCKSTAR agents are a myth it's ROCKSTAR investors who make the decisions.

I was gearing my question towards the appraisal process, which I suppose I did a poor job communicating.
