Is there realtor etiquette?
We are new to investing and wanted feedback from others regarding real estate etiquette. We Have one friend who is experienced in investing, and knows how to get off market properties, however admitted that they only have part time and limited availability due to some family issues. We have another friend who is a long time realtor however he acknowledged that he is not familiar with investing and doesn’t have connections for off market properties. Is it OK to call a listing agent and have them show you a property if you are already working with a realtor? Just wondering if it would make more sense for us to stick with one with limited availability that is knowledgeable, or if we should forget about our ties to them personally and look for something completely out of our circle?
