I printed all the properties in my target markets and went through each listing. I tallied up the agents and sorted them by the number of listings. Three months later I have been in all of their offices, not good relationships with everyone (yet) but it sure helps that they know me when they get a pre-listing. .-= Steve´s last blog ..Investing in a War Zones? =-.

It’s a great time to buy real estate based on sound fundamentals. The Minneapolis market is hot right now.

Hey Troy,

Great question. I created an account on Foreclosure.com and created a list of all the REO listing agents and their contact info. I also look on Craigslist in my target market and search for ‘REO’ and create a list of all of those agents. You can even use the MLS and create lists of REO agents and contact info.

Not all agents will be a good fit, in fact few are good at working with investors. The good agents will weed out the duds and present you only good prospects. They will also include a CMA and will have a ballpark rehab estimate after they have done a walkthru and taken some video of the walkthru.
