The Real Estate Multiple Listing ServiceMarketing Your Real Estate in Freeport IL and Monroe WIEven before the real estate sign is up and the brochures are ready, your agent should list your property with the local MLS (Multiple Listing Service). The MLS is a database of all the homes listed by local real estate agents who are members of the service, which is practically all of the local agents. Important information about your real estate property is listed here, from general data such as square footage and number of rooms, to such details as whether you have central air conditioning or hard wood flooring. There should also be a photo, and a short verbal description of what makes your real estate "special." Real estate Agents search the database for homes that fit the price range and needs of their clients. They pay special attention to homes that have been recently placed on the real estate market, which is one reason you get a lot of attention when your house is first listed. Many real estate agents will want to preview the home before they show it to their clients. The main point about having your house listed in the MLS is that you expand your sales force by the number of local MLS real estate members. Instead of having just one real estate agent working for you, now you may have hundreds or more, depending on the size of your community. The real estate listing agent's main job to make sure that the other MLS members know about your house. This is accomplished through listing your house in the Multiple Listing Service, broker previews and advertising targeted toward other real estate agents, not homebuyers.
