I am a local real estate agent and I have been investing in real estate since 2014.

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

I'm an investor agent and still finding deals. 

Full disclosure I am a paying client (and a VERY happy one) and get a bonus when new agents sign on after I recruit them.

My agent suggested these guys as an alternative.  

If you are a landlord and not using a licensed Real Estate Agent as a property manager you can get away with not complying with all the fair housing laws, but when you are like my company and you have multiple properties available to rent at one time, that is when it is very easy to find out if we treat all applications the same across the entire portfolio.  

If you are not able to find an accurate number of investors after skip tracing the address, I would recommend calling the listing agent of the flip and working through them.

for builders in the business and experienced their construction lenders will do a land advance.for everyone else you might as well come to the realization your going to need the land paid for.save you a lot of time and heartaches searching for that unicorn lender..

I was flabbergasted to hear that even some of the largest and most experienced developers are doing that and other shenanigans.

Personally, I've bought 2 properties with him as my agent!
