Real Estate Listings on this Web Site


Real estate listings on real estate agent's web sites can be a source of confusion. On this site, we have two categories of real estate listings: 1) MLS/IDX listings and; 2) "Handshake" listings.

MLS/IDX Listings: MLS (Multiple Listing Service) / IDX (Internet Data Exchange) listings provide the most complete listings available. The MLS is a system that contains the vast majority of listings currently available. Only licensed real estate agents in good standing with their local real estate association can directly access the MLS. IDX is a system that "feeds" MLS listing information to a real estate agent web site such as this. You can use our IDX feed to search all listings currently available in the Phoenix area MLS. This system shows ALL the area listings in the MLS, including our own as well as other agents. As licensed real estate agents, we can show you ANY listing in the MLS, regardless of who the listing agent/office is.

Handshake Listings: Our web site host, Point 2 Agent, provides a unique service. Point 2 Agent members have "handshake agreements" to share their listings with other Point 2 members. These handshake listings are displayed across every local Point 2 site. In the Phoenix area that means you can view the listings of over 1,000 real estate agents (and if you are a seller, your home will be displayed on those 1,000+ sites!). Handshake listings allow more information and pictures to be displayed than the MLS/IDX provides, and you can even have handshake listing brochures emailed directly to you. Like MLS listings, we can show you any and all Point 2 Handshake listings you see on our site. See this for an example of the Handshake listings. This system shows only SOME of the currently available listings, but they are much more detailed than you'll see on the MLS/IDX listings.

Neither of our listing search systems require you to register or provide any personal contact information. If you do see a home that interests you, just contact us and we'll be happy to arrange a showing or get you more information.

Personalized Listings Web Site: We are pleased to offer potential home buyers this great service. We can set you up your own listings web site! This system allows us to build multiple searches--based on YOUR criteria. It automatically updates twice a day so you'll always have the newest listings on the market, delivered right to your own web page. We can set up searches based on just about anything--location, size, price, age, style, amenities, and more. Through your private listings gateway, you can make notes, tag properties you like and more. It's truly a state of the art, yet simple to use system. There is NO COST and NO OBLIGATION for this service. Here is a sample listing gateway. To get your own gateway set up, just complete this form or contact us.

IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT LISTING AVAILIBILITY! Please note that all of these listings systems rely on agents and brokers across the Valley to keep them updated. Most do an excellent job with this, but occasionally you will run across a listing in our system that is no longer available. We apologize for this inconvenience and do everything we can to ensure the accuracy of our listing data. But we can not guarantee availability. If you see something that interests you, we'll be more than happy to verify its current status with the listing agent!
