Adding Listings
Adding listings to your website
is a must. By placing your listings on your website, you expose
those listings to more potential buyers and increase the likelihood
of selling the listing quickly. Potential sellers also like to see
that you are taking advantage of every opportunity to market the
homes that you list.
- Click on My Listings .
- Enter the MLS number for the new listing in
the text field, and then, click Find .
- Select the Property Type (i.e. Condominium
or Single Family) from the drop down menu.
- Type the property Address information in the
appropriate fields. If your local board of Realtors does not allow
you to show the street address, enter a blank space in the Address
field by clicking in the box and tapping the space bar.
Otherwise, you will be prompted for an address at the end of the
process.
- Type your List Price , number of Bedrooms
, number of Bathrooms , and Square
Feet . It is best to enter these as whole numbers (no
fractions). You don-t need to enter dollar signs or commas - the
listing entry program will add these for you.
- Description - Enter a concise description
of the listing. There is a 4,000-character limit on this field,
which translates roughly to two double-spaced typed pages.
- Upload New Main Photo - Click Browse
, and locate your photos. Click on the name of the photo
you want, and hit the Open button.
- If the photo you want is on your local MLS website, you can
save it to your hard drive by clicking your right mouse button
on the photo. One of the options in the menu is Save As
. Select Save As , and save the photo
to the appropriate folder on your hard drive. Remember to note
the file name and where you stored it for future reference.
- Enter Photo URL - Locate on the web the photo
you want to load (probably on your local MLS website), and right
click on the photo. One of your right click options is Properties.
Select it, and then, highlight the URL (ex. http://www.homesinpleasantville/housepic5.gif)
Copy it to your clipboard by right clicking
on the highlighted text and select Copy. Close the Properties
popup menu, and click in the text field called Enter
Photo URL. Then, paste the copied text in by either hitting right-clicking
in Enter Photo URL and selecting Paste.
- Expire Date - This field defaults to 120 days
from the current date. Once the listing expires, you will have
to re-enter all the information again, so note the date. You can
always extend it by editing your existing Agent Load
listing and changing the date.
- Click Submit to save your new listing. If
you missed a field, the program will prompt you to complete the
form. Remember to enter a blank space if you want that field to
be blank on the web.
- Go to http://new.kw.com/listing_search.php, and verify that
your new listing shows up completely and accurately. You can also
check your featured listings on your KW Agent Website.
