Hey BP,

My brother has decided to try out Real Estate, much like myself, and is currently renting a bedroom in a SFH in Buckeye AZ. He is very mobile and eager to do some "house hacking". I want to help him find connections in Phoenix, is there anyone out there willing to share some tips for the area or help a couple newbies understand the market? Any preferred realtors, property managers, contractors for the area?

Thanks again!

I'd focus on finding first a property management company that you can trust on the ground.

From there ask them for referrals for realtors and contractor that they like to use.
