Dear MLS Update:

I must have missed your article in the newsletter regarding listing contracts being sent to your office. Could you please review the correct procedure?

Listing in Elkhart

Dear Listing:

According to Section 1 of the MLS Rules & Regulations, you have 7 days after the signatures of the seller to deliver a copy of the listing contract to the MLS office. You may do so by mail or by faxing it to the MLS office at 875-7174. When sending the copy via fax or mail, you must include the MLS number on the listing contract.

SECTION 1 LISTING PROCEDURES: All listings of properties, properly signed by the seller(s) and the agent, of the following types, located within the territorial jurisdiction of the Elkhart County Board of REALTORS® taken by Participants and which do not establish, directly or indirectly, any contractual relationship between the Multiple Listing Service and the client (buyer or seller) shall be entered into the computer within 72 hours (excepting weekends and holidays). Said listing will be delivered to the MLS office within seven (7) days after signatures of seller(s) have been obtained.

Dear MLS Update:

Is it possible to attach a virtual tour in our MLS?

Touring in Goshen

Dear Touring:

Recently, the MLS Board of Directors approved adding virtual tours to the MLS system. The cost would be a $10 insertion fee per virtual tour. The MLS has been upgraded to allow office staff to add the tour directly to your listing. Steps in doing so are as follows:

Listing Maintenance
Change a Listing
Add the MLS number
Click on Virtual Tour
Enter the beginning date of the Tour
Click Yes for the Tour
Add the Tour URL
Click on Save

Listings with virtual tours attached will have a "V" next to the listing information. All you have to do to view the tour is click on the "V". The Virtual Tour field was also added to the Broker Reciprocity download.
