Ibox Price Increase
Effective 8/1/09, the ibox price will increase by $3.51.
The total cost for an ibox with tax will be $105.00 versus $101.21. The price increase is the result
of an increase in shipping costs.
Update Your Listing Status!
Per MLS rules, you are required to report a status change to your listing within 2 business days of the change. Failure to do so may result in a $250.00 fine.
It is very important that statuses are correct to ensure that statistics are accurate and timely, and also to aid you in conducting business. No one wants to show an eager client a property, only to find out it is already sold!
Access To Arizona Foreclosure Information!
MLS has entered into an agreement with RealtyTrac that will allow Tucson MLS members to access foreclosure information for the state of Arizona for a discounted rate of only $19.95 per month. There is no minimum term required to sign up. The links to register for this service are located in the MLS under the ‘links’ tab, and there is also a button on the tucsonrealtors.org website.
