Realtor and Investor - South Bend, Indiana
Hey all. I've been around bigger pockets for about a year learning as much as I could about investing in real estate. Early this year, I made the decision to get my agent's license and joined a brokerage in South Bend, Indiana. As I work to to build my real estate business and portfolio, I've decided to become a more active part of the biggerpockets forum community.
Listening to the podcasts and reading through the forums and blog posts, I found that there was a real disconnect between investors and agents. It was with that in mind that I decided that it would be a good move to get my license, if nothing else to better understand the industry. As I got going, I decided that I wanted to be the "investor's agent" in my area and would love to get connected with some area investors and find how I can add value to your business.
In a effort to potentially get a little discussion going here and hopefully interact with a few locals, I'd like to start off by asking you all what characteristics, traits, or attributes do you find to be most important when looking for an agent to be a resource to your business? What frustrations have you ran into in regards to working with agents in your area? Any other advice you might have for me?
Thanks everyone!
