  MLS FAQ
  
  What is the MLS?
  
  The Multiple Listing Service (MLS) is a local database that markets residential or commercial properties for sale to certified realty agents. Each location has a distinct MLS that is utilized by local real estate agents and is only available to these representatives. Once noted on your regional MLS, your residential or commercial property might feed (depending upon area) to several nationwide realty websites, such as Realtor.com, Zillow, Trulia, Yahoo and more. The direct exposure you receive on the MLS is tremendous! (Countless property agents through your local MLS and countless prospective buyers through the web.)
  
  How does the MLS bundle work?
  
  Once you sign-up for the MLS Package, the listing broker for your area will email you the additional documentation needed by the MLS. Once the forms have been sent back to the listing broker, the residential or commercial property is listed and designated a MLS number. The listing broker will list your residential or commercial property on your local MLS for six months and at that point the service is provided and there are no refunds. Once noted in the MLS, you will be responsible for provings, additional marketing, open houses, settlements, and so on. Please click your state on the map for full details in your location.

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

Realtor.com pulls restricted details from the MLS and often takes a few days to pull the picture. The listing agent has no control over for how long it takes to feed through to Realtor.com. Also, specific residential or commercial property types will not feed through to all of the websites. Please contact the listing broker before submitting the MLS paperwork.
