Select one within 48 hours and notify them as well as the other ones, who didn't make it.After the selection, have another meeting where you go over clarifications of your expectations, work relationships, how you want things done and communicated, response time, ... etc.

Looking to connect for inventory and established relationships

@Thibe LuongI would suggest going with an experienced realtor in your area, and attempting to build a relationship with them.

I would have 3 realtors pull comparables and if I had a relationship with an appraiser in that area, I would petition their advice.

@James Rodriguez I have an excellent attorney send me a pm

This was a good learning experience, however, I do not recommend out of state rentals starting out unless you have an EXCELLENT local team in place

If not, this realtor stepped way over the line and I would severe my relationship with him

I realize that is a large increase ($100) just to kick-off our landlord/tenant relationship, but this is a business after all.

You have to make sure you don't get on the wrong side of the law by advertising but if you have existing relationships you can leverage those.

This will also give you a chance to get multiple quotes and find someone ideal, for you specific situation.You may make a connection with a GC that will do amazing work for you since you built that relationship.
