A home listed below market... Q on who to contact

[Courtney Murray]

In finding a couple of homes listed through a realtor below the dollar amount for surrounding comps, do we contact the listing agent directly to ask questions about the home to submit an offer, or by contacting the seller directly through direct mail, I'm thinking that will take longer to get an answer..... and might not get an answer. Then again the realtor may not be "investor friendly" where if I approached through the realtor, I may have cut myself short from a deal. What are your thoughts in which direction is the right way to go?
