Good morning Pros,

What do you advise when it comes to choosing your real estate agen? For me, experience is number one. Any other traits to consider?

Thank you and happy holidays :)

I've stuck to the strategy of finding properties myself and then reaching out to the listing agent and look for dual agency. I'm not loyal to any other agent, so the economic incentives of dual agency make me believe I have an edge in offers.

I've considered getting an agent to monitor the MLS and look for potentially attractive deals, but I am in a situation where I have the time to do it myself and I feel the experience of sifting through houses, analyzing areas, and crunching the numbers is great for my own growth in REI.
