Colorado MLS

Colorado MLS: As they say in the Colorado MLS world, "location, location, location." The hottest locations right now are uniform resource locators, or URLs. A quick search with Yahoo! or any other Net search engine reveals page after page of realty-related Web sites ranging from slick national sites  to Boulder MLS own Greathomesforsalecolorado.com. "I get e-mailed daily by people who have been browsing my site and have questions about the Colorado MLS and Colorado real estate," says Joseph. "What we tried to do was put a full service Colorado MLS real estate site under my name," he says. I'm personally in the market for a house," he says. "I looked on the Internet, and there was not a single site that really impressed me when it concerned Colorado real estate and the Colorado multiple listing service."

Joseph believes that the most important value-added service he provides to the Colorado MLS is photos. Unlike many other realty sites, every Greathomesforsalecolorado.com listing has a picture because "it's worthless to have a listing without a photo. Without photos it's like looking at the classifieds." Greathomesforsalecolorado.com also features a Colorado MLS search engine allowing consumers to search by price range, square footage and number of bedrooms and baths. Visitors who click on "walk through" from the Greathomesforsalecolorado.com home page or through its numerous references to the Colorado MLS,  MLS Boulder Colorado, and Colorado Springs MLS, can see a lovely slide show of a half million dollar property in Denver, Colorado. When the days of increased bandwidth that all Internauts are anxiously awaiting finally arrive, Joseph hopes to provide more and better walk-throughs and even some Virtual Reality "fly-throughs."

"The only other service that is directly downloading the Colorado MLS is the National Association of Realtors' Real Estate Information Network," Joseph says.  Anyone who's flipped through a print Colorado MLS knows it's chock full of heavily abbreviated information that requires a magnifying glass and a Realtor-to-English dictionary. That's not the case with greathomesforsalecolorado.com, Joseph says. When listings arrive, they are full of detailed information for features properties in the Colorado MLS and allow for the buyer to set-up appointments, receive detailed alerts, and manage property pricing.

An on-line "brochure" like Greathomesforsalecolorado.com is nice because it gives future and current owners of Denver Colorado homes the ability to sort through the vast amount of information available on the Colorado MLS.  An on-line Colorado MLS where agents key a listing in once and then forget about it, is perfect. Greathomesforsalecolorado.com displays Colorado MLS listings with a picture of the home, a brief narrative, and something about the agents. It's a hands-free environment until you want to buy the home.
