Comprehensive search functionalities, such as: basic, advanced, map, address and listing ID, give home seekers the opportunity to browse literally every aspect, detail and characteristic of a property, enabling them to narrow their search results, in hopes to find their ideal home. Consumers then have the option of saving their specified search criteria and can opt to receive automatic email updates to moment a property matching their specifications becomes available on the MRIS. Also, each listings page provides convenient links for potential home buyers to email property details, take a virtual tour, schedule a showing, print a flyer, contact the listing agent for more information, view large photo galleries, locate their chosen property on an interactive Google Map and even calculate probable mortgage payments, creating a nearly effortless online real estate search experience.
