You get it off market and thus (possible not pay market value for it).

It might be good for those doing their first deals to see this as well.I've got an off-market duplex that I found when making an offer on a SFH - both deals are being wrapped up into this one purchase but I'll focus on the duplex for the sake of this conversation.

Quote from @Ian Russell: Question I have a duplex that is paid off. 

Like some people have mentioned here: interview for agents that know what they are doing, that know investments, that know how to get ARVs , that know how to assess renovations, construction costs, etc A realtor that has this experience will have a team also: Think Contractors, Architects or drafters, Interior designers, Engineers, inspectors, title reps, and they will also already have whole sellers they have worked with in the past, know how to get direct to seller off market homes for you, hard money lenders or other avenues for cash like offers.

Their sales tactics just turned me off.
