STEP 4: Search for a Property

There are a variety of platforms that will enable you to search for a home, but none of these platforms compare to having a customized property search set up for you. If you are wanting to obtain the broadest search capabilities and have the most up-to-date information, then you should enlist the services of a licensed REALTOR® who has access to the MLS (Multiple Listing Service). By doing so, you will gain access to properties that are in "Coming Soon" status before the average consumer finds out. In addition, listings often contain additional documents and other pertinent information that is sometimes only visible to the MLS subscriber. When you partner with a REALTOR®, they will make sure you are informed about all relevant information contained in the listing which could impact your decision regarding a property.
