What is the MLS?   MLS stands for Multiple Listing Service, in Minot it is the MMLS (Minot Multiple Listing Service). Not every agent or every Real Estate Company is a member of the MLS. I am a proud member of the MMLS. As a member I can show you any home listed by any agent with any company. Some companies and some agents choose not to be part of the MLS. The advantage to them is that they usually represent both the seller and the buyer so they collect double the commision. Also they save a few dollars by not paying dues. There are also some agents and companies that try to circumvent the MLS process by joining yet not always putting their properties on the MLS roster "protecting" their listing and again trying to collect both sides of the sale. If you are a seller it is to your advantage to work with a MLS Realtor. The best way to explain this is that if you are NOT working with a MLS Realtor then you have ONE sales person out there trying to sell your home. If you are working with an MLS Realtor then you actually have about 180 Realtors in Minot working for you to sell your home. The same is true if you are a home buyer. If your Realtor is not a MLS Realtor he/she will not be able to show you all the listings available to you.

Bob - Great explanation of what the MLS is, I know we use that term all the time assuming everyone knows.

Michelle, on my website I have a page dedicated to the Minot MLS and it always ranks very high on my SEO stats so I thought why not throw it in on these posts I do about what is available in Minot. It just might boost my Google power even more.

Bob - I like the prices of homes in your area. The lowest home that sold in my neighborhood lately, a little shack that someone immediately started to remodel, was sold for #475,000.  Perhaps I should reconsider a move to a more affordable city. Have a great day.

Elizabeth, come on up, I need a partner! Only thing is I'd sure rather have the commissions your getting on those prices then what we get here.

Hope you have the opportunity to list more to add to the list and then sell many to get those check marks under your name.  Make it a great and successful day!

Thanks Connie. It's pretty amazing to be in a town of 41,000 and only have 57 homes for sale. Of course the real bummer is that there are 180 Realtors in town.
