COMPS from realtors
Hey BP, I'm thinking about using a realtor for comps ONLY and I don't know if I pay them for their service. Also if I have a property do I call them each time or is there a automated way to do this.

I do comps all the time for free for some local investors. you need to establish a relationship with a investor friendly realtor, and let them in on anyone you know or come across that is in need of a realtor. for example, I have a guy who trys to purchase at wholesale and if he cannot come to a agreement, he refers me to the listing.
