MLSListings Partners with iHomefinder on IDX Websites

Makes creating professional, branded websites quick, easy and affordable

Sunnyvale, Calif. (January 5, 2011) — MLSListings, Inc. today announced the availability of a new suite of branded website solutions incorporating real-time MLS (Multiple Listing Service) data for agents and brokers in Northern California through its PERKS program.

The MLSListings IDX (MLS IDX) product will offer four tiers of custom-branded website solutions to suit every budget and business need. These websites are powered by technology from iHomefinder, one of the industry’s leading IDX property search technology firms.

MLS IDX offers hosted property search which enables consumers to see all listings maintained by the MLS, not just the REALTOR’s® own inventory. The websites also feature lead capture, client management, statistics and reporting, an integrated WordPress blog, a mobile IDX site, and additional services that an agent or broker needs for a full-featured online business.

An individual site can be built and launched with live data in 10 minutes, eliminating the frustration, paperwork and delays common to other website solutions. The superior interface, combined with optimized speed and performance, maximizes the user experience for both REALTORS® and customers. With unbeatable prices and no hidden add-ons, members now have a website product from a vendor they already trust to provide them the information, support and training they need.

“Having the latest high tech tools provides a competitive advantage in the real estate industry, and the benefits of these new products for MLSListings members are numerous,” said Jim Harrison, President and CEO of MLSListings, Inc. “Depending on the product they choose, members using one of these customizable websites can get lead and listing management features for both clients and prospects—a very useful resource when showcasing listings and open houses.”

Other MLS IDX features include a consumer-friendly, interactive map search, automated email updates, hot sheets, a consumer property organizer, and unlimited custom webpages. To monitor their website’s performance, MLSListings IDX users can obtain regular analytics reports on lead and subscriber activity.
