@Lee SmithStart compiling the stories for your book.  

If you know what you are looking for, use the specifications when compiling your list.I hope this is helpful!

I can't say for sure but the MLS data is just compiled from the public records and that is going to be how most of these list generators will get their data.

What a great compilation.  

Before you make a buying decision make sure you understand the numbers, where they came from, how they were compiled, and what the time period over which they were compiled.  

I took my first step this week and started to compile, in excel, a list of potential investors.

@Don Griffith, I'll PM you.I called up 15 to 20 Texas based banks and compiled a list with their interest rates and terms

Great analysis Account Closed put for compiling and presenting the data! 

While VA's might make sense from a dollars and cents perspective, you might make up that cost savings with additional costs come tax season when your accountant has to piece together a poorly compiled set of records at a high hourly rate.  

So Google is your best friend.There are also other small brokerage like Keri Shull Team that I've heard good things about, but it's best if you solidify a list of questions to ask and compile a good 4-5 brokerage of different sizes to interview.
