Key Steps For Productive Home Searches

Use Online Resources

• Search all MLS Listings and use the other Property Search functions in the Tool Bars on each page on cbcreagents.net
• Read about and understand the Home Buying process
• Register for your cbcreagents.net Portal to get email alerts on all MLS listings, Open Houses, save property listings, and track your favorite streets
• Read our Open Houses section for online open house searches

Access Experience

Once you find the right professional, be sure to explain your goals completely and ask to be informed as soon as relevant homes become available. Also, understand what additional resources the firm offers to assist your search. Tour homes with your agent and visit Open Houses; this will give you a sense for the market, and provide helpful information to the agent.

Be Flexible

New listings may become available on a daily basis from our Multiple Listing Service (MLS). In a competitive market, these properties may sell rapidly. Inform yourself about local home values and obtain mortgage pre-approval early in your home search process, so that you can move quickly.

Open Houses

Visiting Open Houses can be an important step in your search for the perfect home. Here are a couple of helpful hints:

• Search for our Open Houses online: Open Houses are typically entered on cbcreagents.net between Tuesday and Thursday for the following weekend
• Screen properties online by viewing the home prior to visiting Open Houses: it will help you to save time and prioritize your trip
• Print the listing page, map, and directions from this site: they will be helpful as you visit Open Houses
• Save the listing to your Portal: you will receive automatic updates each time the status of a property changes.
