How do I vet an agent for house hacking?
Just like the title says. I am looking to house hack in the greater LA area but there are so many agents out here I don't know where to start.
What questions are appropriate for me to ask to gauge their trustworthiness and competence? I want to find out how good they are and whether they serve me (as opposed to their own agenda) without stepping on anyone's toes or being disrespectful.
What credentials should they have? Do they need to be "investor minded"? Should they be investors themselves? In what cases do I go with my gut?
