However, I am a licensed agent with the Miami Real Estate Board.

Your home insurance might allow for short term rental use with an endorsement but you'll have to discuss with your agent. 

Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?

Have a few potential BRRRR deals I've sent my agent, but want to make sure I have the right team in place before submitting any offers.

I had a new PML ask me about the difference between a Loss Payee and a Mortgagee so I thought I would share some commentary from my insurance agent partner on the subject: Quick point of reference between the difference between Loss Payee and Mortgagee:Mortgagee: the Lending company/entity that lends the money for the propertyLoss Payee: an entity or party that has an insurable interest of said property.

I'd prefer to go somewhere that I can build a long term relationship with a reliable agent/broker and property manager.  

I've talked to a few real estate agents to get an idea of the landscape in Austin.

proud of you for looking into BP at such a young age.Here is my suggestiongo to the top of the page and connect with an agent under FIND AN AGENT.

I am a licensed real estate agent in Arizona (currently with eXp) and also own a couple of vacation rentals in Scottsdale that I manage myself.

However, I had an agent who I trusted intimately and who stayed with me the whole time, and frankly, did more than she should have done to help me out.I wouldn't recommend anyone do what I did though.
