Southern California Real Estate Listings Among the Freshest on the Internet

Realtor.com® Property Listings for Southern California Are Now Refreshed Every Fifteen Minutes; Actual Sales Prices Posted Within 24 Hours of Sale

Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) November 19, 2008 - Consumers searching for real estate in Southern California have a competitive advantage when negotiating for properties found on Realtor.com®, the #1 homes-for-sale-site. Updated information on property listings is now fed to Realtor.com [http://www.realtor.com by Southern California MLS (SoCalMLS), one of the nation's largest Multiple Listing Services (MLS), every 15-minutes, delivering the freshest and most up-to-date information to home buyers searching online for real estate. Within 24 hours of a home sale in the area, actual sales prices are also posted on Realtor.com.

"We know nothing's more frustrating than researching properties online and finding you're basing a decision on old or out-of-date information," says Realtor.com President, Errol Samuelson. "Through our 15-minute MLS data update program, consumers searching on Realtor.com for properties in Southern California now have instant access to comprehensive information in as close to real time as possible. This means a seller's home will be visible to potential buyers faster and buyers will be able to find new homes or take advantage of price changes faster."

About half of the 4.5 million+ property listings on Realtor.com are currently updated four times an hour. The average listing on Realtor.com is refreshed at least 13 times a day.

To stay on top of the market, home buyers searching Southern California on Realtor.com can opt-in to receive emails or RSS feeds that deliver immediate updates when a property matching a buyer's saved search criteria is listed, as well as when price adjustments or new photos are added to a listing of interest. Later this year, Realtor.com will begin timestamping every listing so consumers know exactly when the listing was last updated.

Additionally, Realtor.com is partnering to receive the most accurate, timely and detailed information about recently sold properties directly from the MLS. SoCalMLS is one of nine MLSs providing sold data, representing more than 150,000 members. As a result, consumers can access actual sales prices for a growing list of key housing markets within 24 hours of a sale's closing, review property details and photos, and find the transaction's listing and buyer's agents.

Samuelson adds, "While some national real estate sites show listings on their sites, only Realtor.com delivers the most property listings in Southern California that are also updated every 15-minutes, including sold data for a growing number of communities. Combined with the full array of tools, resources and connections to local Realtors®, we're confident consumers searching for properties in this area on Realtor.com will be better prepared and hopefully more successful in finding the homes of their dreams."
