How to Find a Real Estate Agent (for Investors)

1. Google isn’t going to help you. You’d be hard-pressed to find a real estate agent who labels himself or herself as “investor-friendly.”
2. Look for agents who consistently list renovated properties. More than likely, the investor who renovated the property is listing it with the same agent who helped them find the deal.
3. Get out and network. Go to meet-ups. Ask questions. Most people love to share information.

In the video above, I go into further detail about how to successfully search for and find agents who have experience working with investors. By implementing these things, I assure you that you’ll take your business to the next level!
