Hey Everyone!

I have spent a bunch of time reading forums and blogs and listening to BP podcasts. The recurring first bit of advice is to make basically my business plan. Why I am going into REI, my price range, my niche, my financing strategy, as well as finding a mentor and developing a marketing plan and exit strategy.

I keep hearing over and over to go look at 100 houses, basically meaning to look at all the houses in my territory to get a beat on the market.

I did a tour of about 10 with a realtor, which was nice because she was able to get me inside the houses and tell me some things I didn't know.

However, I don't want to make her drive me around to 100 houses while I just chalk it up to learning. How do I go about seeing all these houses and getting the most out of the experience? Do I just go look at the house after seeing the listing price? Do I call the agent listing each house in my territory and set up appointments?

Thanks in advice for any advice,

Christopher
