How do we, as investors, differentiate ourselves from our competitors with our current realtors?

Do not be worried about the competitors.  

Start picking up jobs at prices that beat your competitors.

It's also good to check out hotstats.com to see how hotels are doing, as they'll be main competitors of yours. 

If so, the market advantage you may have is more living space than your competitor's rentals. 

I don't need anymore competitors lol...

I started at 31 - 6 years ago, buy my first rental unit, barely cashflow positive, around minus $100-200/ month, though a good deal for appreciation of the property (2x of purchase price), the second one was 3 years ago, better rental setup and better income (learnt from the first setup and competitors), bought a house to live in 2 years ago which mortgage is paid from the income of the second rental property, completed the mortgage of the first unit last year (5 years MTRG),on going for the third property using BRRRR that I learned here in BP.

Got behind schedule due to a delay in financing (see my other thread) but everything is back up and running now.Some milestones - Structure was fixed, 2 piers were added Wall dividing kitchen and living room removedWood paneling removed and drywall hung Electric upgraded, new fixturesThis weekend - Work starts on the roof and sidingDrywall finishedPaint beginsQuick notes and lessons learned - Negotiate with EVERY contractor, I've agreed to pay the full bid price from 2 contractors only because their bid seemed fair at the time and was substantially lower than competitors.

However it just helps my business as I build relationships with such people while my competitors complain.

If your work is just focussed on being better than your competitors, you will eventually be outdone again.I came up with a better mentality.Consider this:My work has to simply be better than you can ever imagine.
