June 26th, 2009
It should come as no surprise to anyone reading this that the Internet has become the indispensable source for real estate listings and information. Most Homebuyers and Real Estate Professionals go online to research available real estate for sale. All MLS systems (Multiple Listing Service) including our local Shasta MLS system (FlexMLS) are web based systems that allow for real time searches of real estate for sale in their area. ( Shasta County as well as parts of Tehama, Siskiyou and Trinity County in our case). All agents belonging to the Shasta MLS are able to provide access to all homes for sale on the Shasta MLS via their personal websites. You might think that which Shasta MLS agent site you choose to access the Shasta County Multiple Listing Service will offer you the same features and listing search tools. Listings? Yes. You will see the same listings on any agents public Shasta MLS viewer. Search and Save Features are a different story. On most agents MLS viewers you can browse listings but you have to keep a notepad handy to make lists of the homes that interest you. Going back and finding the same listings later can be a real hassle and requires re-entering all the information. Because of this FlexMLS offers an optional upgraded MLS search that allows you to create your personal password protected Shasta MLS search with save to listing cart and multiple search features. This is very handy when you are looking at listings on a daily basis and want to keep track of your favorites. The opening image of the search includes all listings on the Shasta MLS. Use the search refining options on the page to narrow search to your personal preferences. In this way you can stay on top of all homes for sale that might work for you. You can give it a try here. If you need assistance please don’t hesitate to ask. Happy House Hunting!
