Hi Kyle,
Best of luck on killing it for 2016!! I have found my best RE agents that are investor friendly are REO, Short sale specialists, and those that attend the local REIA. We are doing the same as you and networking like crazy to uncover these guys in Western Mass. -Bob

Western Mass has good cash flow in and around Springfield. There are many areas of Springfield to stay clear of though. PM me if you are interested in seeing some examples. We also wholesaled a house in Worcestor to an investor and they did great as a rental.
