    MLS FAQ

    What is the MLS?

    The Multiple Listing Service (MLS) is a local database that advertises residential or commercial properties for sale to certified real estate representatives. Each area has an unique MLS that is made use of by local genuine estate agents and is just accessible to these agents. Once listed on your local MLS, your residential or commercial property may feed (depending on location) to several nationwide realty sites, such as Realtor.com, Zillow, Trulia, Yahoo and more. The exposure you receive on the MLS is tremendous! (Thousands of realty representatives through your regional MLS and countless prospective buyers through the web.)

    How does the MLS package work?

    Once you sign-up for the MLS Package, the listing broker for your location will email you the extra documentation required by the MLS. Once the types have actually been sent back to the listing broker, the residential or commercial property is noted and designated a MLS number. The listing broker will note your residential or commercial property on your regional MLS for 6 months and at that point the service is provided and there are no refunds. Once listed in the MLS, you will be accountable for showings, additional marketing, open houses, settlements, and so on. Please click your state on the map for full details in your area.

FSBO.com, nor the listing broker, have any control over this or where potential buyer leads are sent. This is the very same no matter which business you list with.

    In a lot of locations, your MLS listing will feed through to Realtor.com and the other sites within 1-3 service days after being active in the MLS. Realtor.com pulls minimal information from the MLS and sometimes takes a few days to pull the photo. The listing representative has no control over the length of time it takes to feed through to Realtor.com. Also, specific residential or commercial property types will not feed through to all of the sites. Please examine with the listing broker before submitting the MLS paperwork.
