According to the National Association of Realtors, 95% of all Buyers start their search for property on the Internet. In fact, buyers cite the Internet as one of the most important tools they use in their property search.

Why you should use an agent that participates in IDX? The National Association of Realtors “Internet Data Exchange” (IDX) policy enables MLS Brokers to display your listing on other IDX public websites. IDX, also called “broker reciprocity,” is in many ways simply the logical extension of the MLS, but it’s greater than just that. Example: if you list your property with a non-participating IDX Broker, Buyers who are looking at local real estate websites can only find your listing on your non-participating IDX Broker’s respective website. If you list with an IDX Broker, Buyers can find your listing on 50+ other local real estate company websites and 100’s of more websites nationally and internationally. Bottom line: IDX introduces your property to many more buyers and increases your chances of receiving offers. So, make sure your Broker participates in IDX.
