I sent emails to Zillow/Realtor/Redfin about my listing not showing up on their websites a few days ago. I have only received a reply from Redfin but they have asked for an MLS fact sheet. How do I send them that? Also will my agent communicate to me about what the issue might be?
We understand your concern about your listing not showing up on Zillow, Realtor.com, and other major websites. Here's what you need to know:
Potential Causes:
- MLS Syndication Issue: Sometimes, errors occur during the process of sending (syndicating) your listing information from the MLS to these websites which is an issue with the IDX technology.
- Internet Glitches: Occasional technical issues can temporarily delay the syndication process.
