What Steps Do You Follow to Get on MLS in Arizona?
The process to get an MLS listing Arizona follows a clear sequence. First, the seller contacts Congress Realty and chooses their flat-fee listing package. Second, the seller provides complete property information including bedrooms, bathrooms, square footage, lot size, year built, and notable features or upgrades.
Third, the seller submits professional-quality photos. Listings with high-quality photos generate significantly more buyer interest than those with poor images. Fourth, the seller completes Arizona’s required Seller’s Property Disclosure Statement (SPDS), which discloses known material facts about the property’s condition.
Fifth, Congress Realty reviews all materials, enters the listing data into ARMLS, and activates the listing. The property then appears on the Arizona MLS and begins syndicating to buyer search platforms. A typical flat fee listing AZ goes live within 24 to 48 hours of receiving complete materials.
What Documents Does Arizona Require for an MLS Listing?
Arizona requires sellers to complete a Seller’s Property Disclosure Statement (SPDS) when listing a property. This document discloses known conditions including roof age, HVAC systems, plumbing, electrical, past water damage, pest issues, and any HOA obligations.
The SPDS is a legal requirement in Arizona and protects both the seller and buyer during the transaction. Congress Realty guides sellers through this requirement as part of the flat fee MLS Arizona listing setup.
Additionally, sellers sign a listing agreement with Congress Realty that authorizes the brokerage to submit the property to ARMLS. This agreement outlines the flat fee, listing period, and terms. If the property is in a homeowners association, HOA documents including monthly dues and CC&Rs should be available for buyer review.
