Best place in Birmingham to invest and good RE agent?

[Richard Olshove]

Hello all!  I am exploring Birmingham as a potential investment location.  Where are the best places to invest in A, B and C+ SFRs properties?  Looking for any insights that would prove valuable and/or a local agent who I can work with.

Hi Richard,

I’m a realtor here in Birmingham and an investor getting started in the Avondale/Crestwood neighborhoods. We have an A-/B+ property downtown as well. I’d love to talk to you about what you’re looking for and see if I can help.

Hey Richard,

I always recommend my guy @Rob Drum. He's very active on BiggerPockets and has been a fantastic agent and resource not only for myself, but countless others.

@Richard Olshove I second Tae's @Rob Drum recommendation and I also recommend

@Mark Byers as a property manger and great resource. Both of them guys are investors and have an abundance of local knowledge. I've bought 3 in Bham so far this year and looking to add more. Feel free to hit me up if you have any questions.

@Jason Carter Thank you so much for the contacts and offer of help, I really appreciate it!

Also, y'all should meet if you haven't already!
