MYSTERIOUS MULTILIST

Despite my many years of blogging, I realized that I’ve always thrown around the word “multi-list” but I’ve never really explained it. No time like the present!
The multi-list is the official database that Realtors use to research listings. It’s how we share information about the status of each property.
There’s not just one multi-list… there are many. Each covers a different geographical area. The West Penn Multi-List primarily services the Western part of PA from about I-80 & south. Properties in the area north of Meadville are input into the Greater Erie Board of Realtors Multi-List, or “GEBOR.”
Again: South of I-80 is serviced by the West Penn Multi-list. North of Meadville is serviced by GEBOR.
If a Realtor works primarily in Pittsburgh, they will belong to the West Penn Multi-list & have access to those houses. A Realtor who buys & sells in Edinboro will belong to GEBOR.
My savvy readers probably noticed that there is a little gap between I-80 & Meadville. To ensure that I’m covering my clients, I’m one of the rare Realtors who belongs to both of these multi-lists. To work in Western PA, you have to have access to all the information that interests your clients.
Always ask to which multi-list your Realtor belongs & ensure that it’s the predominant system used in that area.
I’m Always Here & Happy to Help!
