The main Realtor site has an interface that provides national coverage.Historically the MLS system is really very local.

:woohoo: Thanks everyone for the support and feedback, I would just like to see more and more of the sites members get involved with day to day discussions!

Bandit signs that lead callers to a recorded message, ads in the paper, ads on internet sites, flyers mailed, handed out?

Hey and welcome to the site.

Welcome to the site.

Ok, I'm new to this site and I'm excited!!!

Here are some of the things that I do for them:Prepare and update budgets and timelinesPrepare or review vendor contractsMake sure W-9s, insurance certificates and lien waivers are receivedAssist with preparation of due diligence itemsOrder surveys, appraisals, inspections etc. and make sure they are received on-time (or sooner)Review and prepare closing documents for signing (after received from the attorney)Coordinate closing with broker, real estate agent, title company, lender, etc.Full charge bookkeeping including A/R, A/P, FinancialsPrepare and submit draw requests to Lender's for payment of contractorsThere are a lot more things I can do for local clients, such as meet contractors to receive bids, check-in on remodel sites, etc.Usually the REI's locate the properties and do comps themselves.

The home that I am looking at is scheduled to go up for auction next month, I got all of the info from the county sheriff’s auction web site.
