Searching MLS Descriptions

[Jeff Mikos]

Hi Everyone,

I am not a real estate agent and do not have full access to the MLS. I'd love to be able to search the descriptions of MLS listings for specific terms used. Does anyone know of a way to do that for free online? I can't seem to find a way to do it efficiently through Redfin or Realtor.com - perhaps I am SOL.

Maybe MLS is different from state to state but in Florida we can (and I do all the time) keyword searches - searching both public and Realtor only remarks in listings.

I search for keywords like "investor, asis, fixer-upper" and have "keyword hotsheets" set up that I check about ever four hours. It helps me get the properties to my investors and get offers in on those properties ASAP. 

Like I said, maybe every MLS is different from state to state, but keyword MLS search are the way to go.

To Your Success...
