MLS FAQ

What is the MLS?

The Multiple Listing Service (MLS) is a regional database that promotes residential or commercial properties for sale to licensed genuine estate representatives. Each area has a distinct MLS that is made use of by local realty representatives and is only available to these representatives. Once listed on your local MLS, your residential or commercial property may feed (depending on location) to several national realty sites, such as Realtor.com, Zillow, Trulia, Yahoo and more. The exposure you get on the MLS is significant! (Thousands of realty agents through your regional MLS and millions of possible purchasers through the web.)

How does the MLS plan work?

Once you sign-up for the MLS Package, the listing broker for your location will email you the extra documents required by the MLS. Once the types have been sent back to the listing broker, the residential or commercial property is noted and assigned a MLS number. The listing broker will list 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 noted in the MLS, you will be responsible for showings, extra marketing, open homes, settlements, etc. Please click your state on the map for complete information in your area.

Will my contact details be published on the MLS and on Realtor.com, Zillow and other public websites?

Your contact phone will be posted on the actual MLS. The seller contact details is not permitted on any public site. By default, the listing broker's name and telephone number will appear on your MLS listing along with the public realty websites, such as Realtor.com, Zillow, and so on. It will be the listing broker's contact details on the public websites. FSBO.com, nor the listing broker, have any control over this or where possible buyer leads are sent. This is the very same no matter which business you list with.

Does the MLS Package consist of any supplies?

The MLS Package does NOT include any indications or materials. You can see everything that is consisted of for your location using the map above. Click your State on the map for full details on what is consisted of.

Yard Signs, Directional Arrows, Brochures, etc can be bought individually from the FSBO Store once your MLS order has actually been submitted. *** Please talk to the listing broker before buying extra materials as specific MLS's have rules concerning signage and you may not be able to use a FSBO sign ***

When will my MLS listing post on Realtor.com and the other sites?

In most areas, your MLS listing will feed through to Realtor.com and the other websites within 1-3 organization days after being active in the MLS. Realtor.com pulls limited details from the MLS and in some cases takes a few days to pull the photo. The listing representative has no control over the length of time it requires to feed through to Realtor.com. Also, specific residential or commercial property types will not feed through to all of the websites. Please talk to the listing broker before submitting the MLS documentation.

Will I have the ability to keep control over my listing on Zillow if I list my residential or commercial property in the MLS?

No, when your residential or commercial property is active in the MLS you will not retain control of your listing on Zillow or any other websites that pull their information from the MLS. This is out of our control as this is an automated feed from the MLS. Once your are listed in the MLS you are technically no longer a FSBO so your Zillow listing will go from For Sale By Owner to For Sale (with a listing representative).

Can I cancel my MLS listing early?

Yes, you might cancel your MLS listing at anytime throughout the 6 month listing duration, however the upfront listing charge is not refundable or prorated. Before getting in into a composed listing arrangement with a licensed real estate broker, you should ask about whether there are any additional charges charged for early cancellation. Please note - Once the MLS types have actually been sent back to the listing agent, we are not able to offer refunds.

Can I update my existing FSBO.com plan to the MLS bundle?

Yes, you may upgrade to the MLS plan. FSBO.com does not keep any charge card details on file. For this reason, you will need to either upgrade online by logging in to your account. Once logged in click on "Edit" and after that on "Upgrade my Package". You will be called through e-mail by the listing broker within 24 hours of updating with a few extra forms that are required by the MLS.

I have bought the MLS bundle, what is the next action to get listed on the MLS?

We have referred your details to a certified real estate broker who will put your residential or commercial property in the MLS. They will call you by means of email within 24 hours to start on the needed MLS types (please make certain to check your email and your SPAM folder). Once these types have been sent back to the listing broker for entry into the MLS we are unable to offer refunds.

Will my MLS listing feed to Zillow & Trulia?
bloglines.com
In the majority of cases, yes the residential or commercial property will immediately feed to these two websites. If your MLS does not comply with these websites then you will need to manually include your listing. Unfortunately, we have no control over this. It is free and simply takes a few minutes to do this. Here are the guidelines ...

Enter your residential or commercial property address on Zillow. Click the link to view your residential or commercial property information. Next to the map click the button next to "More" that has an arrow pointing down. From there you can "Claim This Home" so you can edit the residential or commercial property details and also "Post for sale free of charge".
