Hi Sean,
This is really sound advice on starting a property investment business. I think finding the right real estate agent would make a huge difference to your success.
They could give you first look on potential properties and help you to get the best price when selling.
If anyone wants to take the time to give me advice I will always listen…alerting real estate agents to your intentions of investing in real estate just gives them the opportunity to try to fill your requirements, which is a win win situation.
