i would actually be weary of "big Gun Realtors' as they usually do not give the attention you may want or need to sell the property. our industry is based on listings. which means that a realtor could have a slew of listings but just sit back waiting for the buyers agents to approach them. they are not actively selling and rely on their assistants to take care of everything.
if you are just looking to list the property so its on MLS you can ask any agent to do that for you. they will more than likely ask a fee. if thats the case keep asking around and go with the one who has the lowest fee, hand over your pictures and youre done.
but in reality, if you actually want an agent to work the listing, def interview a few to find out who has the better marketing package for your needs. and of course an agent who is
investor friendly would be your best bet.
good luck!
