New MLS Service Coming in February
John Kurlich, Yes-MLS COO

In February, all Yes MLS licensed members will have the ability to access and open Supra electronic lockboxes. No longer will members have to forgo showing a listing to their buyer because the listing agent is using a Supra lockbox on the property. No longer will members have to sacrifice the security of their sellers and listings because they had to use a “mechanical” or “combo” lock box on a property because not all Yes MLS members had the ability to open an electronic lockbox. No longer will members be forced to meet a buyer’s agent at the house for a showing because the buyer’s agent is unable to access the electronic lockbox. Yes, soon, all Yes MLS members will be able to provide their clients with the safety and security only electronic lockboxes, and the ability to access them, can provide.

Soon, Yes MLS licensed members will be able to download the Supra eKey application to their smartphone, whether it be Apple or Android, and show any listed property secured by a Supra lockbox. In addition to being able to access the electronic lockboxes, Yes MLS members will be able to use the eKey app to:

  1. Set access hours to listings.
  2. Track their keybox inventory.
  3. Track, identify and have a record of who opened a specific lockbox and when.
  4. Get real time listing data at the door, including a listing photo and property notes.
  5. Quickly and easily show properties using their phone’s biometric feature or even their Apple Watch.
  6. Receive real time showing information like when the showing starts and when it has ended.
  7. Send alerts to notify others of your location.

These and other features will be included for all licensed Yes MLS members as part of, and included in, their Yes MLS dues. For more information on the Supra eKey application, click on the photo below.

Further details and announcements will be coming to all Yes MLS members in the weeks ahead as we roll out this great new service.

 

 
New Policy for CEU Classes at Yes-MLS
Dean Klunzinger, Yes-MLS Education & Customer Service Manager

The Education Dept at Yes-MLS is constantly trying to think of ways we can assist our brokers and agents.  Probably the first thing you think of is our Account Executives or instructors.  Heidi, Laura, Joyce, Tracy and Dan work very hard at answering your questions over the phone but did you know that they also write most of our training manuals and tip sheets?   Additionally, they write and produce videos that we post in Matrix and on MLSNow.com.  All of our AEs visit offices and bring many different educational sessions right to you.  If you haven’t done so, please call 216-485-4100 ext 480 and find out which AE covers your area and schedule a visit with them.  I know you will find your time spent with them beneficial.

As 2020 approached, we were trying to come up with another way that we could help our brokers and agents with their busy careers.  So, I’m pleased to announce that the CEU classes conducted at Yes-MLS will now be free for our brokers and agents!  That’s 2 hours of CEU credit at no cost to you!  As many of you are aware, we offer several CEU classes including Prospecting, CMA and Realist: Using Tax Data.  Seating is limited so you will want to sign up as far in advance as you are able.  You can register by clicking on this link:  https://mdweb.mmsi2.com/normls/  then entering your MLS ID and Password.

The Education Department is looking forward to serving you in 2020.  We are exited about all the enhancements in Matrix and are anxious to share them with you.
