How can my Realtor best work for me?

Your Realtor will require your email address. Realtors require this information to set you up for email notifications. You’ll receive these emails daily, or, as new properties that meet your criteria end up on the market (remember that Needs and Wants List?).

What people are unaware of is that MLS is NOT real time. What does that mean? As an example, if a property is added at 6pm, it won’t show up in your email until the next day.

For that reason, your Realtor should do a second LIVE search on their own, daily. Any properties they find which match your goals should be sent to you immediately, and NOT wait until the day after.

Properties you like, or are very interested in, show up in your email. Quickly review them and let your Realtor know if you see something you like.

SPEED is important when in the home buying process.

You only need to send your Realtor the MLS number. The Realtor will be able to use this number to get all of the information they require.

Tell your Realtor a good day and time for you to see the property. They will arrange a showing. You can meet them at the property.
