I am seeking reliable data and cannot solely rely on platforms like Zillow for this information.Thank you for any assistance you can provide.It's really best off to have an agent with access to the MLS to pull accurate data related to comps when underwriting a deal.

If you really don't value your agent's ability and think you can do it better, it's likely best that you 1) interview more to find one that you do trust, 2) go through the listing agent, directly, if you're that comfortable with handling your side on your own, or 3) maybe get your license so you can control your side of negotiations with the proper tools needed (MLS access with agent info, showings, contracts, tax records, uploaded listing docs like surveys, disclosures, broker assistance for questions, etc.).
