Hi Tayla,
I drove 800km in a day and found our first property. But it was all worth it!! Now because we have bought a property, the agent is now a great contact and is letting us know of properties on the market, before they are on the net or in their windows. So it really is worth a drive, even if it is to start a relationship with an agent, so that they can be looking for you, which saves you time.
Agents get calls all the time from window shoppers, and they don’t really have a reason to show loyalty to them. But if they meet you, know what you want, and know that you want many, they will help you out.
Firstly, as everyone has said, do your research on the net.
Good luck

There are heaps on the net, if you look hard enough. I found that a lot of the agents don’t always post on the net that the property is currently tennanted. I made a few calls to agents, and many of the properties on the market that fit my criteria do have tenants in them.
So I would recommend that you find an area in your price bracket, and then make a few calls and get an idea of rental return. Don’t just make a judgement on whether they fit the criteria from what you see on the net.
Good Luck.[
