how to get access to mls
I am about to take the plunge into real estate investing after standing on the sidelines for so many years. One avenue Im interested in is bank reos. The problem is I dont have any friends that are realtors so what kinda of proposition can I make to a realtor in ordere for him or her to allow me to access their mls. I would like to use the mls not only to look at new reos on market but to pull comps and develop buyers list continuosly by searching cash buyer and so forth

This is the advantage the agents have. You should consider becoming a legit licensed agent and you can also access the mls. Myself, I am an agent and I would never give out my info for someone else to access my mls as I could get in trouble if they ever found out, hefty fines. Go become an agent and you can access the mls, otherwise find an agent who will work with you.
