FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Monday, February 20, 2006
EUGENE, ORE. - Eugene based IDX, Inc. today announced the addition of Verandah Place Realty’s Cathy Melton to its suite of real estate based search applications online. Melton now uses the latest version of IDX Broker to display Multiple Listing Service (MLS) listings on her personal website. This allows her to retain leads generated from direct traffic, rather than losing out to the listing broker through the use of traditional framed MLS search tools.
The IDX Broker application provides agents, brokers and other real estate professionals with the tools needed to create a competitive advantage in a growing real estate market.
The objective in developing a website with an integrated MLS data feed is to generate new leads at a low cost for the client. With automatic email announcements, custom client home views, and advanced admin and integration controls, Melton’s clients now have access to the entire MLS listing database on her website.
Additional benefits of using IDX Broker Pro include the ability to automatically create featured listing pages, check the status of new MLS listings and generate automatic emails 24/7.
