What is the MLS? MLS stands for Multiple Listing Service. The MLS is a database of homes and properties for sale that are represented by real estate agents. There are over 800 MLS Listing Databases in the USA.
Many cities or towns have their own MLS. However, when people think of the MLS, they think of Realtor.com. Realtor.com is a real estate database that contains millions of properties from the more than 800 local MLS databases. It is the official website of the National Association of Realtors™     ............................................................................................... ...............................................................................................
Why is listing your home on the MLS important? MLS listed properties sell faster (for sale by owner or not) and for more money than properties not listed on the MLS. Realtor.com receives nearly 5 million monthly visitors from agents and home buyers. That's a lot exposure for your home or property for sale. Over 75% of all properties sold in the US are as a result of being listed on the MLS. Being listed in the MLS means all local Realtors can find your home in their MLS database.
