Required Documents for MLS Listings

When you enter a listing in the MLS, please be aware of the required document rules for applicable Residential and Residential Income listings.  For instance, adding the required Lead Based Paint document to your listing before making it Active in the MLS will help you avoid a compliance notification.  

Section 1.18.1 of the SWMLS Rules and Regulations requires that a Lead Based Paint addendum be added to a listing within 24 hours upon listing in the MLS.  The document can be added to the listing via fax cover sheet or by direct upload from your computer.  You also have the option of adding Documents to an Incomplete listing so that it is ready to go when the listing is made Active in MLS.
