I'm not sure exactly how many MLS systems we have in Michigan...but there are a lot of them! I pay to have access to one local Board and fork out more money to have limited privileges on a second. I recently took a listing which caused me to investigate the possibility of listing privileges with a third board.
Our initial contacts yielded limited success, but we were finally routed to the right person just in time...for them to go on vacation! Unfortunately, there was no one else to answer the question or process the paperwork, so we waited.
When, the individual got back from vacation, we were informed that processing could only take place through the mail and since they were going to be out for another week...well, the listing would just have to wait until they got back. A few years ago, this would have made me frantic. That was then...This is NOW!
During the hiatus of 2 weeks in which this MLS system has been unable to attend to a listing from a paying client, I took advantage of some Excellent tools available to real estate agents who need maximum exposure for their listings. My clients are moving out of state and need to sell their home. They don't have 2 weeks to wait. So, here's what I did....
