Reason #10
Sale and Follow Through - Our professional approach includes not only the listing, showing and securing of a buyer, but also the closing and follow up on all items such as resolving title problems, title opinions, abstracting or title insurance and surveying.
MLS stands for Multiple Listing Service. This is an organization of member firms who agree to share their listings with one another. They do this to increase the visibility for their listed properties and secure a buyer more quickly than they could individually.
Most MLS’s list all their properties on a 3rd party neutral website. This allows buyers to look at one website and see all of the area properties for sale. Also most MLS organizations have formal rules that all members must honor to ensure the fair treatment of all members and their listed properties.
The benefits of an MLS extend to both buyers and sellers. For buyers, it is simply the ease of finding that perfect property. For sellers, it is that homes sell more quickly because of greater exposure. For both there is no additional cost for the MLS advantage. We will discuss more benefits in our next column.
At Midwest Land we believe an MLS will benefit the Wayne community. However, Wayne presently does not have a MLS. Therefore, I would love to hear what you, the readers, have to say about an MLS. Have you heard of an MLS? Would you like to see one started in our community?
