The Best Way to Find Comps Nationwide

The Best Way to Find Comps Nationwide is Biggerpockets.com

1.  Sign up and fill out all of your profile info on Biggerpockets

2.  Find an agent or broker in the area you are doing business in by doing a search

3. Consider upgrading to pro membership for more options

4. Give the agent or broker your dead leads that don't fit in your criteria

5. Ask them to become an assistant and get MLS access to run your own comps. If not, then at least ask them to run comps on deals you have under contract. Start networking with 1 another.

That's it! This is by far 1 of the best ways I have found to get MLS comps Nationwide

I agree with Gerald, Darnell, online advertising is the way to go.  I have tried many different forms of traditional marketing myself for extended periods of time and, though they still work, they tended to be less effective per dollar spent than online marketing.  And think about it, where's the first place you go when you have the motivation to take action or find information?  The internet, of course!  Motivated sellers do the same.

Unfortunately, most investors don't believe they have the smarts to do their own online marketing (PPC and SEO)...  Simply not true.  It just takes trial and practice, like every other form of marketing.  Of course, if you'd like to skip that learning curve and focus on getting the deals done, there are companies who can help you get online and do the advertising for you very effectively (see 10BillionLeads.com for example).

Remember, you ultimately want to own your investing business, not run it.  A wise business owner creates systems and surrounds themselves with experts to make it happen!

Good luck and happy investing!
