Re:       Our participation in a Business Multiple Listing Program

 

GOOD NEWS!  FREE 3 month trial period for all NEBBA members!  This will help us give maximum exposure to our clients’ businesses and get them the best price in the least amount of time. This is the BIZMLS program Ken Stebbins presented at our April meeting.

 

The free trial will run from October 1 to December 31, 2004. Then we will decide if we want to stay with the system. If we do, there will be a nominal monthly charge ($35-$55) for each participating office.

 

Ken Stebbins will give a training/orientation class Wednesday September 29th  at the Best Western in Auburn.   He will be available to visit offices to help with implementation the following Thursday, September 30th and Friday October 1st.     

 

All participants will co-broke the listings they post. They will also have access to, and be able to co-broke with, approximately 2,900 Florida listings.

 

The commission split will be 50/50 unless otherwise specified by the listing broker.

 

All listings will need to be put on the system within seven days of the first instance of public marketing with certain exceptions. The first instance of public marketing will be defined as an advertisement appearing in the media (internet, newspaper or magazine), email or direct mail sent to potential new prospects, telemarketing new prospects or any other proactive contacts designed to reach new prospects. This provides a reasonably objective standard to judge compliance with the “seven day rule”; yet flexibility for the listing agency to internally work with in-house prospects for as long as they like prior to sharing the listing.

 

The following listing types would not be placed on the MLS system: 1) Open Listings

2) Listings Priced $2.5 MM and higher and 3) Listings where the seller has put in the listing contract that he does not want the business co-brokered.

 

An exception to listing on MLS is anything that has not been publicly advertised i.e. on the internet or in newspapers.
