@Corey Hawkinson Corey, I will definitely look into that, it does make sense. Thank you!

@Jennifer T. Hi! That is a good idea. I will be a little hard for me to do that at the moment. I travel for work and it's hard for me to go home that often just to go and drive to see the property, that is the main reason i need a good agent, she/he will practically be my eyes to let me know if it's even worth for me to flight home and take a look at the property, Don't get me wrong, I will be more than happy to fly and do whatever I need to do, but it has to be something that I know will work for for my goals. That is the reason why I need someone who is a hustler, someone that can see the benefit of working with me in the long run. But once i get some properties and don;t need to work as hard, I will be definitely taking your advice. sounds like less headaches that way. Thank you!

@Jordan Moorhead Thank you! that definitely helps me and gives me the motivation I need. I know I can and I will. I don't need anyone who is negative or not wanting to do the hard work. I will find someone else or do whatever it takes to find what I need.

@Russell Brazil Hi Russell, I am in Florida. I've seen people invest in this market. I am not saying is easy, but i know it's not impossible. I just think I need someone that is willing to do the work. I was just told by this same agent she won't be able to help me, even when I said i think I found a single family home that will work with what i am tying to accomplish. She said she feels she is not a good fit for me. Call me crazy, but if she was as much as a hustler as I am, she wouldn't have said no. I just don't think she is willing to do what it takes and what I need. She is sold single family homes to people that have no interest in real estate investment, but are just looking for a home. That's my take on it. It's ok, I just need to either find someone that's hungry as much as I am and understands what my goals are. If she/he understands that this is just the beginning of a great opportunity for them to make money now and even more so later, when I am buying multi family homes and hopefully some day even apartments that will be worth much more. 

@Dave Thomson

@Corey Hawkinson

Hi, 

Thank you! As long as i know that there is a way, even though it might be hard, but at least I know it's not impossible, I can deal with it. I am not afraid to put in the hard work and get what I'm looking for, I just need an agent that is willing to put in the hard work with me. 

Thank you!!

Thank you! I actually started looking for a new agent because I don't feel she is good for what I'm looking for and the goals i have set. I almost ended up getting away from my goals because of her and that's not what i need. I need someone that is willing to put in the work. I appreciate your encouragement!

@Jennifer T.

Hi, I guess i failed to mentioned in the discussion that, that's exactly what I'm looking for. I'm looking to buy a duplex ax an occupied owner, thus the reason why I am looking for a good place, not a fixer upper because I intend to live there. I understand all the requirements for such loans, but I am just not happy at the way my agent is going about it, to the point that I almost end up buying a single family home, all because of her discouragement. 

@JM Payne I am definitely going to follow your advice. I do feel like my agent feels like finding duplexes are a little harder than single family homes and really don't want to do the job. I almost end up changing my plan and almost got into a single family home, but last minute someone ended up offering higher than me. My agent almost steered me away from my original plan. I won't allow that to happen again. Thank you!
