If your search is really greater Monterey rather than the city itself, start with the agent whose reviews mention the town you are buying in.
How should I choose between them?
Read the investor reviews first, then the agent's own forum posts, which show how they think about a deal before you have spent an hour on the phone. Ask each for the last three investment deals they closed in Monterey County and how those deals performed. An agent who works with investors will have the numbers ready.
What is an investor-friendly real estate agent?
An investor-friendly real estate agent represents buyers who purchase property to rent, renovate, or resell rather than to live in. They can price a property against rent comps and renovation costs, not just against nearby sales, and they are used to offers written for speed and inspection terms an owner-occupant would not accept. Many are investors themselves.
