How Do You Want to Market Your Home? A REALTOR® Can Help You Decide
When it comes to selling your home, there’s no one-size-fits-all approach. Every homeowner has different preferences when it comes to how their property is advertised. Whether you want to cast a wide net or keep things more private, a REALTOR® can help you craft a marketing strategy that suits your needs.
Let’s break down the basics to help you understand your options.
The Role of the MLS in Marketing Your Home
You’ve probably heard of the Multiple Listing Service—or MLS—but what exactly does it do?
An MLS is an online platform where real estate agents and brokerages share listings. When your home is listed on the MLS, it gets the widest possible exposure—agents across the region can view, share, and promote your home. Plus, your listing gets distributed to public websites that consumers like you may already use when browsing homes online.
To ensure fair access and equal opportunity, most MLSs require your agent to add your listing within one business day of publicly marketing it (such as putting a “For Sale” sign in the yard or posting about it online).
NCJAR's 2025 President, Jeff Jones, shares important updates with members, including a reminder to complete continuing education courses by April 30th. He highlights the rise in fraudulent listings and encourages vigilance in verifying properties. A new Consumer Guide on Homeowner Associations is available on the NCJAR website, providing valuable insights for members and clients. Lastly, Jeff thanks attendees of the 2024 Circle of Excellence Award celebration, recognizing top producers in the industry.
