Buyer for Wholesale deal - Should I user realtor's help?

[Mark Sloan]

Hey I am a wholesaler in the Atlanta area and I finally have a property under contract. I was able to check recent sales and saw where 2 other distressed properties have also sold on the street where my property is located.

The tax assessor site is not up to date on the sales so I do not have access to the new owner's information. They were listed by real estate companies and I have the buyer's/seller's agent information. Should I reach out to them for help? I emailed a buyer's agent for one of the properties and he said he would happily relay the information to his buyer but I want insight before I send him everything. Not sure if they want a fee or how that process works.

Also, I can access recent sales on a county platform for $5/day to gain access to the transaction but of course I would rather attempt to get the information in a more resourceful and economically efficient way. But then again $5 could save me a much more costly expense if I have to pay the realtor.

I appreciate the help in advance! Sorry for rambling.
