When filling out info on a new listing for the Multiple Listing Service I always cringe when some things are asked.
One of my least favorites is this in choices. Wired for highspeed internet. I always pass that one by because how can you actually tell? One's idea of high speed may be dial up; another's might be cable; and another's is DSL. What is the highest speed that you can be wired for?
Another least favorite and always passed over is "wireless access point." What is that? I need someone to explain it to me before I can get an answer.
Two others make me chuckle. You can choose one of these.
Telephone - private
Telephone - party line
Does anyone still have a party line? How many people DON'T have a private telephone, usually hanging on their belt or in their pocket. It makes me wonder how long since these MLS choices were written. They probably should change it to "Landline" now if they even have a telephone line into the house. They also ask which telephone service is available and that too is probably obsolete since you can choose from so many.
Oh, well.......just skip them since they're not required.......
