As Greg has already pointed out, we were perplexed with the new MLS rule against promoting single property websites in the MLS. One of BloodhoundRealty.com’s value propositions is our transparency… We are anti-hoarders of information. So moves like this new MLS rule seem antiquated, backwards to us. Give people as much information as they can stand and allow them to draw their own conclusions, make informed decisions. Oh well. If we want to work in the residential resale business in the Phoenix market, we have to abide with this stogy old institution that does its best to make sure its members don’t aspire beyond status quo.
So, I reread the rules when I input my listing for 1322 East Vermont Ave. this morning. I want to give my clients as broad an opportunity as possible to sell their home. It became clear to me that our MLS isn’t afraid of Realtors giving information to Realtors. This being the case, I told buyers’ agents about the single property website. I reason that if I were the buyer’s agent I would give this information to my client, so she would have as much information as she could stand to make a better informed decision.
