    Hi
    Has anyone out there ever employed a property consultant to do the leg work in finding a cash flow positive property? Has the experience been a good one and was it worth the $$$$$.
    If so, can you recommend a good organisation that specialises in this?

    Hi Maria0911,

    When it comes to property consultants you generally have two choices:

    1. A buyer’s advocate: These guys work on your behalf to find and then negotiate a deal on a property. The ones that I have seen are generally to do with the home rather than investment market, however over the years I have seen some investor-specific schemes come and go.

    I’d turn to the trusty yellow pages and see what you can find. You could also ring some agents and ask if they know any names of people they have dealt with.

    2. Using bird-dogs. A bird-dog is another name for a fellow investor who sources deals and then onsells the details in exchange for a fee. Naturally, this is far more atune to the investment market and this forum has plenty of tips and insights into the pros and cons of using that kind of service (do a search on bird dog and see what comes up).

    Regards,

    Steve McKnight
