She and her partner closed 95 transactions last year, and I'd be glad to message you her information or provide her with your contact info so you can connect and talk about the current market!

Many south coast agents will not cross the pass if you're looking for something in Santa Maria or Lompoc.

@Ashlie Greising  --- mentioned it might be worth getting a license and only going "active" when you need to do your transactions.

If I get a response and want to move forward with the purchase, I'd really like to work my realtor through the transaction.

@Kyle M.Yeah man fingers crossed but I'd agree that you shouldn't have any problems getting it to appraise as a SF.Good luck though and keep us posted!

Should I cross out SFR homes completely because of the maintenance required?

I know they do cross-collateralization with properties that are free and clear.https://dreamliveprosper.zoom....

If it is an REO then it should be basically a normal transaction.

Because as an agent any and all real estate dealings/transactions that you're involved in have to be ran through your brokerage, as far as I know and have been told from mine...I feel like I'm either missing something or maybe I'm not and it's just not clicking.

Congratulations on the transaction.
