New Field & Policy Change: Showing Start Date – Repost

 

This is a reposting of the original announcement for the Showing Start Date field.  The field originally went live on MLS December 14, 2015.  This is just a reminder for those who are unfamiliar with the field.

————————————————————————————-

The Showing Start Date field is now live on MLS.  The field is required entry for all new and existing listings. Members are now able to promote those listings “not quite ready for showing” while still entering them in MLS.  The Showing Start Date field enables members to enter an exact date when showings will begin.  It is important to note that NO SHOWINGS SHOULD OCCUR FOR ANYONE prior to the Showing Start Date.

New showing policy is also in place.  Verbiage such as “No Showings until 12/30/2015” is allowed in the Property Description field. You may also include a reason for the delayed showings such as “new carpet being installed”.  All wording in the Property Description field is still subject to MLS policies, rules and regulations.
