Many times the listing agent is head of a team of agents, someone of which focus on the buyer side.

An investor in many other markets might have to own and manage 5X-10X as many properties/tenants to achieve the same equity over time, which is why investors in those areas are much more focused on cash flow.If you have been searching for a while, you probably know whether this purchase is a good deal in your market based on the other opportunities you have analyzed.
