Value of MLS Access

[Kyle Thomas]

I'm aware that obtaining a RE License is not a requirement of becoming a successful investor but I am finding that it may be a good way to educate myself and establish credibility.

I understand that making yourself an asset is a great way to kindle a relationship with a mentor or partner - I'm curious, how valuable is access to the MLS from the perspective of a mentor or partner that does not currently have direct access?

MLS access is important, especially in states where comps are not disclosed to the public. I am an investor who holds his license, solely for MLS access. There is no way I could wait for realtors all day to run comps for me.
