How to get MLS access or similar comps services - Austin & Wichita Falls, TX

Question

I need to get accurate comps for my virtual wholesaling business in both Austin & Wichita Falls (North Texas), TX. Does anybody know of any reasonable services that provide this for these cities?

For Austin I've been using free services like Trulia, Zillow, and Redfin to comp properties, with Redfin being pretty good. But I'd like to be able to get something closer to the MLS results. Redfin doesn't work for Wichita Falls.

I thought I'd run it by the community and see what you know. Thanks!

I'm sure y'all have found a solution here 6 years later but...

I'm a realtor in Austin and can provide comps from the Austin Board of Realtors' MLS. I'm also happy to be boots on the ground for any of your virtual deals you come across in/surrounding Austin.

@Josh James I've been putting nearly 100% of my time into the Dallas area for the moment, and have found a service that gives me proper comps here (but costs me $800/yr!). So, I'm saving Wichita Falls for when I free up more time.

Do you have a source for local comps?

@Mary B. Thanks for the link!

@Josh James I would be needing significant and consistent volume of comps. I'm focusing my energies on other markets at the moment, but I wanted to get into the Wichita Falls market as I went to school there (Rider HS) and know the area a bit.

I am active in the Wichita Falls market. What volume of comps are you needing or expecting? Plus, I would love to connect with you, I am always looking for deals here.
