Policy Reminder: Don’t Forget to Upload Required Documents for Your Listing Several fields in the MLS, when marked “yes”, require the appropriate document be uploaded and attached to the listing. It is very important to include these documents to accurately describe the additional features of the property for sale. These documents help to inform all potential buyers of these property-specific features. This will increase the perceived value of the property for sale. Failure to upload these required documents can also result in an MLS fine. Review the official MLS Policy below. 1.02.15 – Required Document Not Attached to Listing Fine with Warning Documents that are required to be attached to listings must be uploaded within 5 business days of the listing entry date. These documents include:
The required documents can be found at www.columbusrealtors.com on the MLS Worksheets, Forms, & Contracts page.

Listing Data Checker – New MLS Correction Email and Tracking System Listing Data Checker (LDC) will be added to the Columbus and Central Ohio Regional MLS on April 2nd. You may receive notices to make corrections to your listings that look different from previous MLS notifications. LDC will expedite and automate the identification of listing errors. This will dramatically reduce the amount of time required to catch and notify members of incomplete or inaccurate information within the MLS. LDC will also standardize the process of tracking and reporting of MLS Policy infractions. Listing Data Checker compares MLS listing data to the public records data in Realist. Some fields will automatically generate an email notifying the listing agent of the incorrect data found on the listing. LDC also allows MLS staff to manually find, notify, and correct listing errors based upon the comparison of Realist and MLS listing data. Integration of the Listing Data Checker system will be a work in progress. There may be some incorrect notifications of listing errors and other unforeseen issues. Please contact the MLS department if you have any questions or feel that you have received an erroneous notification of incorrect data on your listing.
