Help with getting Comps

I looked at a couple properties this weekend that I am planning to wholesale.  But I am not a licensed realtor, so what are my options for getting comps on these properties?  I am brand new to the industry in the Dallas Fort worth area.  Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

Denny Thurtson

Denny, I hate to say it. But you are absolutely right about realtors.  As one myself, I can't tell you how many times I've run comps for an investor only to never hear from them again.  It's simply not worth a realtor's time to do the leg work only to have the investor disappear with the info. 

My suggest is to create a relationship with a realtor where they benefit from the work.  Having a a good agent on your side can be very beneficial. 

Let me know if I can help.

Patrick
