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.

Hoping to compile a list via Google and start calling.  

Apparently, the agent I am or was using told me I wasn't paying her and it takes her 3 hours to compile the data.  

They do a lot more than just comps including scanning for discounted active listings and compiling off-market lead lists.

I compile my own stats through raw data by using medians for real estate, stats can averages are just a good secondary citation.Biggest misconception in the Toronto and vancouver market is that people own, majority rent.

I've set out a path to buying a multifamily and have been trying to compile a list of mortgage lending options.  

I would like to compile a list of the most common objections to REI.

Where are these ratings compiled?

Please see the financials I've compiled and any advice or opinion is welcomed.
