The MULTIPLE LISTING
SERVICE
As our real estate
markets become larger
and the presence of the
Internet makes searching
for homes within the
reach of most consumers,
there is still a role
for the
REALTORS® who
participate and are
members of the Multiple
Listing Service.
This is a database of
real estate of every
type which details
properties offered and
sold, as well as
properties that failed
to sell and were
rejected by the market.
Real estate appraisers,
property tax appraisers
and other professional
and government users
make the MLS an
invaluable real estate
tool. Only
REALTORS® who have
joined the MLS are able
to gain access to this
information.
