I decided to go with the most reputable company in our area and they provided a 30 year warranty on their work.

We welcome any introductions to reputable partners or resources that can be of use for this endeavor.Hope to speak more you you all soon!

Loopnet has a reputation for being where the bad deals wind up.

.- We used a "reputable" online cabinet supplier.

Also, unless you sell the property "AS-IS" (will raise some eye brows on its own", you wont be able to sell without fixing it, or lower the price significantly because of it.I would recommend to get a reputable company out there and get another opinion.

I just want to find someone with reputable references, reliable and that knows what they’re doing.

Find a turnkey provider that manages its PM in-house such that they have skin in the game to find and keep good paying tenants for you, or one that really has a great relationship with a reputable PM they can refer and trust.

Probably the most common answers would be one or more of the following:1) Saving on the commission for listed properties.2) Insider access to the MLS for pulling comps.3) A "reputation" as a real estate agent (although this could also be perceived negatively by some)4) Formal ties to a brokerage that could provide you with additional contacts and leads.Of the above, you can 2 & 4 without a license. 

The answer is either the wholesaler has a well know reputation for getting deals done fast, or the property is for one reason or another not of interest to the brokerage community.
