If your realtor has set up your information correctly then you should be receiving new listings. It would be hard to imagine that there is not a single new listing in 4 zip codes.
Unfortunately we all had to reenter our prospect information and that sucked.
Ask your realtor if they had completed your personal search that they had set up for you. Ask them to manually check to see if there are any new listings in the 4 zip codes you have referred to. If the manual check reveals new listings inform your realtor that they need to update your search and that you want a dump of all the new listings.
I would agree that the new listing format is not as nice as the previous format. I will say however that the new format does actually ask for MORE information then the previous format. However all existing listings were ported to the new format and the new fields that have additional information are left blank. As new listings are entered into the MLS the listing information actually will contain MORE information then the previous listings did.
It definitely sucks that they did this swithover now and I would say that they bungled it up pretty well. All MLS listings rely on the new platform…
I will say this, you are not in a bind because of the new system. Call your realtor and ask him/her to set you up properly. The system is up and running, albeit with continuing problems.
