@Mariana Rojas As long as you do not sign an exclusive agency contract it is legally fine, and if you are up front with them about what you are doing it is ethically fine.

Even if something goes wrong, people forget to submit claims or claims are denied for a number of exclusion reasons.

If you're looking to exclusively invest in Collins County or similar areas then you can kiss those numbers goodbye, but many other places (including Little Rock, a perennial city with strong rent demand) have a R/V ratio that will serve you well.What is the big picture thing that you want to get out of investing? 

Started wholesaling and eventually found an investor near me, that was willing to mentor me, as long as I exclusively wholesale deals to him.

Wow, lots of varying and in my mind, wrong interpretations here.Given, some states have some different wording about inspection contingencies.As Is only means that a seller is Not agreeing UPFRONT to do any repairs on items found needing to be repaired, typically those required to secure fha or conventional financing.....that is All it means.It does Not mean that a buyer can’t have an inspection and either walk away or ask for a price reduction as a result of items found in the inspection.As Is and an Inspection Contingency are not related to each other and are Not mutually exclusive (in the vast majority of markets).

As one of the few Oregon Coast Brokers working almost exclusively with investors seeking Vacation Rental Eligible homes I thought it would be helpful to provide some market insight into what’s happening in regards to STR permissions and projections on the Oregon Coast.A lot has changed since I initially moved, invested and sold my first BNB on the Oregon Coast. 

One of the red flags for me is if a REA wants to be exclusive. 

I'm a relator in GA but I focus in investment properties exclusively.

There is no cost to you (i.e. free).In fact, we often have access to exclusive inventory that is not made available any other way by those same providers because of our volume and the great clients we have.Last but not least, we always encourage our investors/clients to visit our markets, meet our teams, tour the neighborhoods, walk some properties, and get a good feel for everything before committing to a purchase.Hope that helps. 

Also highlights the fallacy of "going under contract" creating an exclusive deal or enforceable position in the transaction.
