A good real estate agent is more than just a clerk who pushes paperwork through the system and juggles numbers. The right agent is more like the concierge at an upscale hotel — dedicated to serving your (real estate) needs, whatever they may be. Sure, a qualified real estate agent costs money — typically, a 6 to 8 percent commission — but when you consider the amount of money you’re investing, a single mistake can cost you tens of thousands more. A real estate agent who has plenty of experience working with investors can assist you with these tasks:
Helping you track down investors and other sources of cash. (See ssss1 for more about financing your flips.)
Finding houses that meet your search criteria, even when those houses aren’t actively advertised as being on the market. (See ssss1 of this book for more about finding properties to flip.)
Assisting in evaluating properties that you may want to purchase to avoid overpaying for a property. (See ssss1 and ssss1 for tips on evaluating specific properties for purchase.)
