Steve D Valentine tells real-estate agents to skip comps before the first visit. Sellers leave out details or lie about condition, and a dirty house needs different comparables anyway. Pull the numbers after you've seen the place.

I do like to ask those questions on the phone before I get there because I really want to be prepared with numbers just in case. And this is one of those houses. Keep in mind, this is one of the reasons I try not to go too deep in comps because he didn't tell me the whole truth on the phone. And when you show up, the comps you pull for a dirty house don't match the trash house. Yeah, so that's why I don't pull comps on the first visit. I get a mind. I can always pull my laptop, I can always pull my phone up, but I've got an arrange low to high.
