Realtor - For Comps Only

[Brian G.]

I have one realtor I've been using for comps so far. When I have asked for comps it has sometimes taken a day or more to get them. I was told by another investor I should be getting comps within 15 minutes. Most of the comps I've needed have been on non listed homes (estates). So, the question is, how can I get a realtor to give me comps quick when they have no upside to doing it? Do you offer to pay them on a closed deal?

If I were a realtor I would not even send you them in my spare time. You have not bought anything from this person, nor are you asking for listings or writing offers through them. They work in real estate also and they expect to be paid. Learn to use your city website or the court house and leave the realtor alone.
