Help I am in need of an agent who can do my contracts in Maryland. I have several REO deals that I am trying to get done but the agent that I am working with now cannot do all the ones that I need to put in. Is there any agents out there in Maryland who can help me out. I need to move on these quickly before they are gone. I am trying to put in several contracts every week. Which could ultimately mean money for the both of us. If you interested PLEASE let me know. Thanks..

If you are near the listing agent you could use them, the only advantage is that they might work harder with the seller to do your deal as they get both commissions. But beware of what you say to them as you might as well be talking to the seller (you are for all pratical purposes). All you need is a contract. Now, I do know an attorney/investor in your state that could probably get that for you as an agent would, don't know, but he is also an investor and knows your plight, so PM me if you need help.

Hey there, I am interested in REOs as well and am looking for an agent, do you have a referral?

Thanks!

In my experience, playing teh numbers game and using a buyers agent to purchase REO's is NOT the most effective way to be successfull.

I always deal direct with the listing broker, forma relationship with them and have them dual represent. I find that I get my offers accepted over others and that I get to see and know of the properties BEFORE they hit the MLS!

Keep in mind the relationships you form MUST be good ones or they will not work out. It is all about the relationship.
