Don't Forget to Vote!Wisconsin Supreme Court race and Local Spring Elections - Tuesday, April 3, 2018
RANW has adopted a new process for involvement in local spring elections for county, town, city and village races. Starting this year, rather than conducting candidate interviews, RANW has sent a candidate questionnaire to all participants in contested races.
Their written responses can be viewed by RANW members via a secure link on the RANW website.
Any candidates that did not respond to the survey request will not have a hyperlink. We encourage all members to please review the answers provided by candidates. You may also get information regarding who is on the April ballot, your polling location, absentee ballots, or how to register to vote at My Vote Wisconsin.

Year Built vs. Age Range - Two Searches in Paragon ReminderThe Year Built field (plus the Source of Year Built) is required for all Residential, Condominium,Duplex/MultiFamily, and Commercial listings in Paragon. MLS has found that some older Active and Pending listings and some Sold from the past year still have not been updated to include Year Built.
For this reason, it is important to remind you if age of the property is key to your customers, then you may need to perform two separate searches, first using Year Built, and then a secondary search using the old Age Range field to find those listings that have not yet been updated.
This includes when setting up prospect searches. Companies and listings agents are asked again to please update your Sold listings from the past year (as well as any active or pending listings) with Year Built and the Source of Year Built. Showing Time and Overlapping Appointments-YOU CAN STOP THIS!MLS has received information from Showing Time on how members and companies can adjust their settings in relation to overlapping appointments. Please click here for details: http://www.ranw.org/pdf/computerservices/showingtimeoverlappingappointments.pdf

Green Bay | New Supra Tool!Assign a Keybox to a Listing with GPS using the Supra Keybox Assistant
~ Offices may already be assigning a new iBOX to a listing through Paragon or through SupraWEB. These are still two great options for Keybox assignment. However, the Keybox Assistant tool will provide an added safeguard in assigning keyboxes using GPS. If the keybox has already been assigned to a listing in SupraWEB or Paragon, using the keybox assistant will not delete the keybox from the listing, but confirm it.
~ Showing and Key Activity reports and showing notifications are more informative when the listing address is displayed rather than just the keybox serial number.
~ The Keybox Assistant feature helps by automatically assigning the listing address to the keybox using GPS when the shackle is released and the key container is opened.
Using Keybox Assistant
~ Make sure you are at the property when releasing the shackle.
~ Select "Adding on a new listing" for the reason when releasing the shackle. ~ Enter the listing MLS # (assigned automatically) or house number (Supra system searches listing database and uses GPS to find a match).
~ If a match is made an email notification including the lockbox serial number, MLS number & address is sent to you from Supra to verify the assignment as long as you have the lockbox in your inventory (defaults to yes).
~ If any of the information in the email is not correct you can log into SupraWEB and correct it.
Click on the following link for screenshots and more information. If need help or have questions, please contact RANW MLS or Supra support.
