Types of Property Consulting

These types of agents have a background in sales and marketing, and they conduct feasibility reports and competitive analyses, collect data on buyer trends, and research potential sites for development
Real Estate Investors
Property consulting firms assign agents knowledgeable in real estate investment to clients aiming to develop their real estate portfolio. Investment agents help clients decide if an investment is sound financial by conducting economic analysis.

Residential Clients
In addition to their regular real estate business, some real estate agents also provide consultancy services. In this scenario, the advisor would assist the customer in determining if a purchase was a wise financial decision.
