Are bird dogs still an useful resource to wholesalers or real estate investors?

I will let you know if I find any good members or resources! 

But one thing that I hear preached on BP throughout the site is take ACTION!  

Hi - Curious what source most use to validate rental rates in specific areas in Chicago...I have been using Trulia as like the overlay of the crime stats but since only really listing places for rent I am looking for other sites that might have better rental stats.  

I just picked up three of your books and was wondering if you or anyone on this forum recommends a specific order I should read themThe three books are:The book on investing in real estate with no money downThe book on rental property investing Set for lifeI am 23 years old, live in Queens, NY and currently am working as a civil engineer on a construction site.

For SFH its squared footage / bedrooms / and area that help command price basically just like apartments.. harder to shop in person for comps so listings on major sites are easy to track by area / map Apartments basically the same way,, but transportation / bus sometimes is a big plus.. and if your in a close nitch with similar size apts I'd recommend go and physically check to see what they are offering,, shop them as I bet they have shopped you.. 

It is a tremendous resource.  

@Jon S. have you tried searching for your rental listing on all sites as if you were a prospective tenant?
