Real estate investing is local—and so are the agents who specialize in it. If you’re buying rentals, flips, or short-term rentals in Texas, you need a real estate agent who understands the local market and the investor mindset.
Here’s how to find the best investor-friendly Realtors in your area.
1. Start With Investor Referrals
Some of the best agents aren’t advertising on billboards—they’re closing deals behind the scenes.
- Ask local investors at meetups or REIA groups in Dallas, Houston, Austin, or San Antonio
- Join Texas-based Facebook or BiggerPockets groups
- Look for agents mentioned in deal posts or portfolio breakdowns
Word-of-mouth is gold in the investment world.
2. Use BiggerPockets’ Agent Finder
Instead of sorting through Zillow or cold-calling brokerages, use tools built for investors.
- BiggerPockets’ Agent Finder Tool matches you with agents vetted for investor knowledge
- Focus your search by city or ZIP code in Texas
- Request agents with experience in DSCR, BRRRR, or STR markets
3. Look for Signs of Investor-Focused Experience
Check agent bios and listings for:
- Duplexes, triplexes, and multifamily properties
- Fixer-uppers or flips
- Properties with STR or Airbnb language, especially in popular areas like the Hill Country, Galveston, or Austin
Avoid agents who only work with retail, move-in-ready homes in luxury neighborhoods without investment potential.
4. Ask These Questions Before Hiring
Make sure the agent understands investment criteria:
- “Do you own or manage investment properties?”
- “Have you worked with BRRRR or DSCR buyers before?”
- “What areas in Texas have the best cash flow potential?”
If they hesitate, keep looking.
5. Red Flags: When to Walk Away
You may want to avoid agents who:
- Don’t know what a cap rate is
- Push appreciation over cash flow
- Suggest homes in STR-restricted cities without checking local ordinances
You want someone who plays offense—not defense—with your portfolio.
