How to Take Better Real Estate Photos with Your Cell Phone

We're excited to announce our new 2 part video series on "How to take Better Real Estate Photos with Your Cell Phone."

Part 1 will cover items you need, costs, how to take different types of photos, and where those hard to find settings are on your cell phone.

Be sure to Subscribe to our RealtyWEB.Net MLS Training Youtube Channel so that you'll get our latest "Tips & Tricks" updates. 

Updated Look for the MLS # Search Page

Starting on February 7th, the MLS # Search screen in Flexmls Web will be updated with a modernized look that is user-friendly and more intuitive.

When Will It Change
These updates will be available on February 7, 2019.

Who Will Be Affected
These updates will be available in Flexmls Web for all users who currently have access to the MLS # search function.  

What Will Change
When using the Menu, the MLS # search option will be renamed MLS # Search. The look of the MLS # Search page will also change, but the functionality will remain the same. You can still enter a single listing number, multiple listing numbers, or you can enter in a range of MLS numbers. A tip on the left side of the page explains how to search for a range of MLS numbers.

If your MLS allows radius searches from the MLS # Search screen, you can enter an MLS number (or numbers), toggle the Radius Search option on, enter the radius you’d like to search, and select the appropriate statuses. Click the Search button to run the radius search.

Why Are We Making These Changes
This update is part of an ongoing effort to modernize the look and feel of all pages in Flexmls Web. It is intended to help make the MLS # Search page easier to user and provide a consistent user experience regardless of which function you are using in Flexmls Web.

Enhancements to Default Sorts Coming on 1/24/19 to Flexmls Pro for Android/Mobile Web

Starting on January 24th, Flexmls is introducing some small but useful changes to how listings are sorted on Flexmls Pro for Android and Mobile Web. Search results will default to sorting by New and Recently Changed First and Listing Collections will retain custom sort orders. These changes will also impact contacts who view listings or portals on mobile websites.  

When Will It Change
These updates will be available on January 24, 2019.

Who Will Be Affected
These updates will be available for agents using Flexmls Pro for Android and Mobile Web. They will also be available for clients who view listings in mobile web browsers.  

What Will Change
Search Results – Default to New or Recently Changed First
When viewing search results as a list, the results will default to showing New or Recently Changed First at the top of the list.

Clients creating searches from within the portal will also see search results defaulted to New or Recently Changed First. If you’d like to change the sort order, tap the current Sort Order and select a new sort.

Custom Collections and Shared Listings – Recommended Sort Order
When you share selected listings with a contact, the recipient will see the custom sort order you’ve created. This applies when using the share option, when recommending listings for a contact’s portal, and when creating custom collections for a contact’s portal.

For example, if you’d like to create a list for Saturday’s showings and arrange the listings in the order of showing, you can select the listings in Flexmls Web by placing a checkmark next to each listing. Then, view only the selected listings and drag and drop them into the desired order.

When you share the listings with a contact, they will see them in the Recommended Order (the order that you arranged them in before sharing them).

Portal – Saved Listings Sort by Rating (High to Low)
When portal users save listings by clicking the star icon, the saved listing collection will automatically sort listings by their star rating (high to low).

Also note, that if your client views their Hidden listings collection, the default sort order will be Price (High to Low).

Why Are We Making These Changes
These updates make it easier to find new and recently updated listings when viewing search results. Additionally, retaining the custom sort order for listing collections is a feature already available in Flexmls Pro for iOS, so this update ensures that custom sorts are respected regardless of which mobile platform you are using.
