@Erik Pacpaco I have a great one in Mesa, AZ that works with a number of my real estate investment clients.

@Joshua BarrettI manage properties for selective clients.

While they can be quite loyal, they are usually not easily trained and tend to lose focus if a threat draws their attention.

It is not competition - your clients are just finding newer and better ways to book saving themselves 100s of dollars in the process by eliminating "service" / "convenience" fees.Trust me - it is happening.

. - but my time is better spent searching for new deals and working with clients.

Either you the agent or your client need to ensure it's in a census tract with no income limits.

I just started to work with investors and wholesalers, which they send me deals every week and I forward to clients.

With my clients I highlight the good, the bad and the ugly and offer my opinion of the property and whether it would be a good rental and also look at exit strategy further down the line.  

I have had several clients do complete aesthetic overhauls on their purchases.
