Does MLS listings really work?
Yes. MLS (Multiple Listing Service) is the single most powerful marketing tool in place today to sell homes. Realtors® MLS system is a database of homes for sale in a particular area, and listing a property on the MLS notifies all real estate agents and brokers in your area that your property is for sale. Agents show and sell our listings through MLS on a daily basis. According to the National Association of Realtors®, approximately 80% of all U.S. homes are sold through Realtors® using the MLS, and homes listed on the MLS average net proceeds of 7% higher than homes sold for sale by owner. The MLS will give you maximum exposure, which is the key to a successful transaction.
