I am a Real Estate Broker in Charlotte NC.I want to learn more about real estate investing as well as network with investors who need Leads.

My real estate agent friend recommends me going into rentals and my accountant (and mentor who owned three rentals and just sold all three) recommends I start by flipping.

Here is a part of the letter, I sent to the seller:The home inspection was completed on September 29th (please see attached) and the following issues were pointed out: 1.The wooden floor frame in the middle unit is deteriorating due to either prior water leak in the bathroom or due to moisture infiltration through the walls and foundation.2.There is evidence of significant settlement under the middle unit bathroom and north closet.3.The settlement of the floor and walls has also resulted in settlement of the roof frame above this area, ceiling shows cracks.4.There is an obvious depression on the roof – water is ponding on the roof above the middle unit, which adds excessive weight on the roof and potential for leaks.5.Asbestos containing material has been found.6.The current bedroom heat installations in the north and south units pose a safety hazard from carbon monoxide, fire and oxygen depletion.7.An electrician performing upgrades did not use ‘arc fault breakers’ in the north and south unit breaker panels, which is required by the national electrical code.8.Upgrades to the electrical system, promised by a real estate agent, have not been completed yet.

I'm a real estate agent originally from Hall county but I have recently relocated to the Athens-Clarke county area.

@Jd Martin she can get a loan on her own but she is bidding against another person right now and the selling agent said a "cash" offer would be stronger.  

Hi Michael- I am an investor and agent in here in Phoenix.  

Do you think that working with a real estate agent? 

I was using an MLS yesterday belonging to a RE Agent friend of mine to find homes bought in cash recently.

As a new agent, I am in the process of setting up my operation.
