Asking a Realtor to do Comps

[Jacklyn P.]

Hi. I am buying 4 rental properties directly from a landlord. I am wondering if I can ask my realtor to do comps for me for those houses even though I do not intend to buy the properties through the realtor because the landlord will increase the prices if we go through the realtor. 

I can probably pay the realtor for her time for doing the comps for me. Any suggestions?
