BLOG UPDATE: Looking For Homes For Sale On The Intern

Looking for homes for sale on the internet

As a Realtor, I receive calls all the time from clients saying, Oh, I found this house on the internet that I would like to see this afternoon.  It's MLS number is 1007009.  

First, our real MLS numbers are not that high in this area.  They are closer to the 63000 to 65000 as of today, so that tells me that they have been to some of the famous internet sites to look for homes.  

Second, most of the homes that are listed on these famous sites are not really for sale.  If there is not an entire house number along with the street name or number, most likely it is not really for sale at this time.  They do this to gather leads and get you to click on the house so they can send your information to an agent.  

Each state has an MLS that will give you current listings that are really for sale.  Your Realtor will be glad to set you a search for homes that are currently for sale in your area.  This would eleminate all of the frustration on your part as you spend your time looking for the home of your dreams!
