Again.. he assured me that this guy has done multiple projects with his buyers and is 100% trustworthy.........I think you know where this is going. 

Having worked with both Landlords, Sellers, Buyers and Tenants in the Marijuana industry I love the question.

I just established a new relationship with a real estate agent and the first thing I received in my inbox was a buyer agreement.

I used their lender (which is not required but definitely encouraged), which was a very pleasant experience.

You as the buyer should be in control of decisions regarding the title company.

Also your experiences how to convince bank to loan to a first time buyers ?

First, the buyer need to apply and be in the section 8 approved landlords list, then inspection etc...I felt too much.

I am not a condo person, but I am a commercial buyer.2.

Preferably one who specializes in investments and works with investors (In most cases its FREE to work with a buyer agent because commission comes from the listing side at least in TN thats how it works) Thats your first step according to @Joshua Dorkin and @Brandon Turner.

If you were to bring other buyers and sellers together for a sale then you would need to join a brokerage.
