I will probably ask a realtor friend to help me but I'm curious what one would look like.

If the property is listed a smart investor will know that any realtor can easily find the property address without you.

My problem is that I have not found a realtor who is willing to share the expired listing report.

Try www.rentometer.com or call a local Realtor in the area and have them tell you the rent.

I always want to deal directly with homeowners and never involve a Realtor.

There are few FSBO's in the area we are moving to, but I found a property that is through a Realtor.

I do not know of anything illegal about doing it unless you yourself are a licensed REALTOR.

The town probably has a population of 5k-7k and it's in rural PA but close enough to a 20k population town that suspect is where most of the residents work at.I feel like the media is trying to help kick start people into thinking the housing market is at it's bottom to get people buying again but the stats I get from my local Realtor on absorbtion rates, DOM, and prices says it's not near over yet.We also haven't seen the mass majority of the option arms begin to reset yet, that's another 2 years away until that wave gets here.

How close are you to getting your Realtor license?
