For those of you that seemed to have missed the point, here's the bottom line of my previous posts regarding OLS vs NWMLS:
WE NEED TO HAVE ONLY 1 MLS DATA SERVICE IN CLALLAM COUNTY, AND IT NEEDS TO BE THE BEST ONE AVAILABLE FOR THE LEAST AMOUNT OF MONEY, WHICH MEANS NWMLS!!!
Here's yet another reason why this needs to happen ASAP: Neither OLS nor NWMLS has all of the listings and sales, which means that neither one has 100% of the data, which means that when an agent prepares a CMA for a seller, unless they are members of both OLS and NWMLS, they are not seeing all of the data.
Sellers, unless you are using an agent that belongs to NWMLS, you are not getting the full picture. Buyers, unless you use a NWMLS agent, you are not seeing all of the listings out there.
Hello??? Do you get it yet?
I will keep beating this drum and stirring the pot until something changes.
Having both OLS and NWMLS in Clallam County is ridiculous, and is a huge disservice to the community and the agents, and until 'the powers that be' realize that they are hurting property values, their clients, and the agents whose interests they are supposedly 'representing' this situation will just continue to get worse.
Do we really need another 'thing' making our jobs more difficult than they already are? Can't we have just 1 really great MLS data provider that costs us less and does so much more? Please? Can't we have all the data in 1 place?
Think about it... it would be such a simple thing that would do so much good for all of us. Please.
And on a side note, it's so interesting to watch potential clients reactions when I tell them that we have 2 MLS systems running in Sequim. Their first question is why?
Wow... that is a good question.
