How long does an Indiana listing last

It lasts as long as the time frame to which you agreed in the listing contract.

realestate.yahoo.com provide guide to realestate listings uploading in xml format
its desribed in guide_to_listings_sub.pdf
but there is nothing about xml structure, no any examples! only fields list. dose anybody have example of xml or know where to see that one?

“Guide to Listings Submission” Technical Spec

xml is Excel spreadsheet format.

The fields list is all you need. Copy the field list across the top row in a new Excel page. Then fill in the details underneath, for your your property. It will include items like real estate type (house, condo etc), for sale or rental, address, various description fields, and things such as DisloseAddress, which you fill with Yes if you want it done and No if you don’t want it. Any that don’t apply to your ad, just leave blank.

This lets you submit numerous properties on one XML sheet, one property per row on the sheet.

If you could come back here and put the link for the page that directs you to that PDF, I could look it up for you and give you better details.
=======

I see what you mean.

Address type the address.

Other items where it days "decimal" just type numbers eg 56000.00 or 3.5, no commas or dollar signs.

"String" means words, eg name of provider (you) or builder.

for "Enumeration" they’ve listed all the choices you have. I get the impression you need to put these into quotes, the way they have them shown.

Woops, further down (purchase, lease, rent etc) they DON’T have them in quotes. Try them each way.

I suggest you copy only the compulsory fields to your spreadsheet, and submit ONE sample, with one item in quotes and one not. See which one comes out and then stick with that style for the rest.

listingsKey and ListingKey are confusingly NOT THE SAME. The top one is a code you invent eg "julylisting1" for the whole ad; the second is another one you invent for this particular property only, eg "wiscCondo".

"integer" means a number, eg 500 (square feet).

Anywhere that says "Boolean" means yes/no. They don’t specify whether to write Yes/no, so it might be better to use computer boolean, which is 1 for yes and 0 for no.

Where they ask for URLs, eg for images, put the images into Flickr and give the URL for that page.

Once you’ve worked out your test submission, also add in the next page of non-compulsory items, as some of them would be of good value to potential buyers.

Section 6 – Data Transmission tells you the address to upload your file to. I suggest you name your files with some initials, such as your company initials, and the date, eg MRL20100705.xml.

WOW they expect a lot of computer expertise from real estate experts. I hope this helps you get started.

Listing ad removed from bulk feed months ago, but it still appears on Yahoo?

admin — Wed, 31 Mar 2010 14:07:26 +0000

We send a bulk feed to Yahoo Real Estate every night. One real estate listing in that feed was removed last September, but the listing will not leave Yahoo. According to the info on this site, individual users are told to tell their bulk feed provider to remove the info from the feed and the listing will go away. In this case, it is not true and Yahoo has removed the option to contact them as a member (though they rarely answered anyway). Perhaps someone else out there has a clue what we can do to force Yahoo to remove the old property that has not been for sale in 6 months.

There is a Yahoo Team member who oversees each of the different categories on the site. But none of them seem excited about the Real Estate section. All the effort goes into Finance, Sports, and Shine.

You can call 866-562-7219. That number is only for paying customers but that should include you. It is the Customer Service desk.

help.yahoo.com is worth trying. But they don’t answer you very explicitly. So explain your problem as clearly as you did in this question.

can you get out of a HOA if it wasn’t known by realestate when contract was drawn? found by title search?

admin — Thu, 25 Feb 2010 17:27:28 +0000

we are under contract to buy a house. When realestate showed house it says no HOA’s on flyer and agent said there wasn’t any. when title search was done it was found,but the hoa it’s listed doesn’t have it on their paper agent said. can we get removed from the hoa. we really want the house but not HOA

HOAs are pretty powerful, I doubt you can op out.

However if you still have not bought the house you most likely can get out of the contract and get your deposit ot earnest money back.

is this house worth 84,000?

admin — Mon, 15 Feb 2010 22:17:35 +0000

it was built in 1910 it’s three beds,large kitchen,dinning room,den,living room and house stable it’s really cool http://realestate.timesrecordnews.com/realestate/Sales/Listing.asp?lid=392-96530 here a pic of the house

I would ask the listing agent to supply you sales comps, the home looks lovely but its always location, location, location,.

The reference to Zillow was good, however I have seen the numbers way off.

Ask the agent, how long has the home been on the market? How did the seller or agent determine price?

This will give you better insight.

This is a prime example at that price and today interest rate, its cheaper to own both in the short and long term

Best to you.

PS I like Texas and Louisiana

How can a realestate appraisal not increase when money was put into the home?

admin — Fri, 22 Jan 2010 19:00:44 +0000

My house appriased at 110,000 2 years ago, since then we h ave completly gutted and renovated the following, master bedroom, bathroom, living room, and dining room. We have installed a secondary heating system. We have also added a 24 x 32 garage and a pool. along with replacing most of the electrical and plumbing. The best guess of what we have sunk in is between 40,000 and 50,000 just for materials. Our new appraial done last week only came in at 125,000. Can anyone explain to be how it is possible that I am not even able to recoup have of what we have put into the house. It doesnt seem to make any sense that putting that much money into improvements only yields a 15,000 increase in property value. That wont even touch what we have in the garagee alone. Should I order a second appraisal (the comps were on the other side of town) or have house values fallen that bad? The neighbors smaller house and smaller garage but similiar size lot is listed right now at 130,000.
So are you guys saying that a completly renovated 3br 2 bath house would have the same appraisal value as a non renovated 3br 2 bath?

Oh and I mentioned the neighbors house because they mentioned it to me telling me its hurting my value.

So adding a garage does not increase property value?

I am coming in late, after your additional comments.

Garages do not add $ value, although they do make selling easier.

The pool is a liability and decreases the value, as you lost land use and they are costly to operate. The pool is the reason your house is lower then your neighbors house.

You renovated the wrong things. The bathroom is good, but the kitchen would have been better then the bedrooms and the dining room. Unless you completely changed the flooring there isn’t that much to do to bedrooms.

Also, house prices were inflated 2 years ago, they have dropped to a more realistic amount in many areas of the country. I am in CA and they are 25% less then 2 years ago.

I need sites that list rental propertys in perth? i know about domain and realestate.com . Any others?!?

Can a bank accept your offer on a house, and then back out?

admin — Sun, 17 Jan 2010 13:30:27 +0000

Not sure if that was the best way to phrase this question but ill explain: The house in interest is a REO property. Originally, we offfered on the house, it was accepted, we signed our portion of the addendums, and when we were waiting for the bank to sign their addendums the listing expired so apparently our offer was void. Then, we contacted the new listing realestate company, and made an offer, while we were waiting on the addendums to come back they called us and said that they did not want to do our fha 203k loan, and would drop the price by 10k if we did not. So we did what we could, and found a new route and the house would not be shown to any other interested parties. Then we get a call that the bank has recieved some cash offers during this time from people who never even got into the house. Since the cash offers were less but close to ours, they want to know our highest and best offer. What should i do? Is this even legal? Does it violate any fair housing laws or anything of that nature?
any help would be great!
Thanks

Yes, of course this is legal.

I do not know where you got the idea that property can’t be shown, but until there is a signed sales contract they are free to show and sell it to whoever they wish.
