I am assuming the intelrocutores are on the consulting firm's side and are not estate agency prospects.

I would make this "talk to the right people". Presumably the text then goes on to claim that "they" (whoever they are) are the right people.

(estate) agent
If the text is about real estate then this seems logical; something like
"talk to reliable estate agents"...

given the additional context, something like "talk to estate agents you can trust" could work...

If it's more specific then perhaps "talk to consultants you can trust"...

Note from asker:
| Maybe it is just an estate agent. I just get the overall impression it has to be more specific than that. Thanks a lot for your suggestions. |

interlocutor, ra.
(De inter- y el lat. locūtor, -ōris, hablante).
1. m. y f. Cada una de las personas que toman parte en un diálogo.
Many times I have heard business people say, "there is nobody to talk to", meaning they don't have a contact, an intermediary to establish a dialogue with.
Another idea: "talk to the right , "contact"
But I think that, as a marketing action, you could write: Talk to who knows to listen you.
who are these people?
