Pulling comps

[Joe Salimao]

Hi,
How can one effectively pull comps on a property? Are there sites that you can use, besides zillow, that show you comps and the actual details of the property rather than just what it sold for? Obviously I will use a realtor for the official comps but I need something to get a basis.
Also, what do you guys offer the realtors who pull comps for you? What is in it for them?

Joe, I use an actual appraiser to get the real comps. My agreement is if they give me the comp then they will get the appraisal on he home when I either sell it or keep it for myself.
