MLS/IDX INTEGRATION METHODS:
The Real Estate Host provides 3 methods in which real estate professionals can integrate their property listings into their website and these are as follows:
We offer 3 integration options for your property listings:
Please click the link for the method in which you want to integrate your listings into your website from the 3 options below:
1. SMART FRAMING MLS INTEGRATION - this is the most cost efficient method to display property listings on your website and is offered free with our design packages. Using this method of integration your MLS provides you with a web link(s) that we encode in your website that displays the MLS search directly from their server to your website thus keeping your site visitors on your website while searching your listings. Because the data is formatted by your MLS, this method offers no amount of formatting capabilities therefore you should ask your MLS provider to provide you with some sample links so that you can see how the framed MLS search will appear on your website. (Regardless of who your MLS provider is, if your MLS provider supports this method, we can support your MLS) - However, not all MLS' support this method, therefore you will need to contact your MLS provider and ask if they support Smart Framing. View our design packages and pricing for this method.
2. PROPERTY LISTING SOFTWARE - this method is also a cost effective way to display property listings on your website and is excellent for individual agents and single brokers, or smaller brokerages. With this method agents / brokers log into an admin area where at the click of their mouse manually add and manage their listings. This method allows for complete control over listings and data, and also allows for nearly an unlimited amount of customization and formatting options for your listing pages, and also includes various add-ons that can be added at the time of your order, or at a later date. This method can also be used inconjunction with the above Smart Framing.
