Building our team, what would an agent think?
My husband and I will be investing out of state due to where we currently live. We are reading the book Long-Distance Real Estate Investing by David Greene and we are getting ready to build our team. First step, find an agent! As I finalize what it is I want to say in our emails, we are hesitant to send it out yet. We know we will be ready with enough cash (at least 20%) for a down payment early next year (2020), but currently we have roughly 13K to use towards investing. Going back to the book, David points out that you don’t want to have the agent working to find you homes within your criteria if you are only going to say no to what they find. So, do we wait to find an agent to start looking for homes until we have that cash, or do we go ahead and send the emails out? I am open to all suggestions, but I would love to hear it from an agents point of view.
