The MLS, Builders & FSBO’s

The Multiple Listing Service is a cooperative system among real estate agents that shows only the properties where sellers are willing to pay a commission.

Builder’s will often have great incentives to buy their homes, but do not buy one without an agent representing you to read the fine print.

For Sale By Owner’s are not listing in the MLS. Some are willing to pay an agent representing the buyer.
