IDX Broker uses its custom IDX solution to speed up and simplify the online property search process, saving both real estate professionals and their clients time and hassle.

EUGENE, ORE., February 9, 2010 (PressReleasePoint) – Irv Schwebel & Associates' Keith Thompson has chosen to employ IDX, Inc. to improve, modernize and enhance the search function of his real estate website, creating an overall more efficient and user-friendly online property search experience for potential home buyers. This innovative Internet Data Exchange (IDX) software has the technology to extract raw listing data details from the Carolina MLS (CMLS), and formats the information to be viewed as a seamlessly integrated and easily searchable part of Thompson's site. Consumers will then have access to thousands of the most current and up-to-date property listings on the Charlotte, North Carolina real estate market.

Five unique search categories are supplied to home seekers browsing Thompson's site, those being: basic, advanced, map, address and listing ID. The most comprehensive of the search options, being the advanced search, enables clients to search literally every last detail of a home, including everything from the number of rooms, to the heating and cooling system, to the landscaping and even the flooring, aiding to narrow their results, in efforts to find a home that meets their every want, need and desire. Prospective home buyers may then save their specified search criteria and receive automatic email updates, the moment a property matching their specifications arrives on the CMLS.

Access to his website visitors saved search information is available to Thompson, via his own personal administrative login dashboard, helping him to create a more personalized search experience for each individual, which is often lost when executing a real estate search online. It is here that he not only receives daily MLS updates, coming directly from the CMLS, regarding property additions and removals, as well as price increase and decreases, but he also has the capabilities to edit his custom CSS and global wrappers, enabling him to develop a sense of unique branding and customization throughout each page of his site.
