FREE County Property Fraud AlertSome counties in Northeast Wisconsin have a free service which notifies property owners if any document affecting their property is recorded. NFIP Extended to December 20, 2019On Friday, November 22nd Congress extended and the President signed an extension of the National Flood Insurance Program through Dec. 20th, avoiding a lapse at midnight. The NFIP is being extended as part of the Continuing Resolution (CR) to keep the government operating while Congress works on 2020 appropriations measures over the next month. Now that the NFIP is attached to the CR, there is less chance of a lapse in December; nevertheless, NAR will keep fighting for a long-term reauthorization measure. They will keep us posted, so stay tuned. MLSCheck Out Homesnap Pro!

Hotsheet vs. Market MonitorParagon has provided some details for RANW MLS members on the differences and similarities between the Hotsheet and the Market Monitor. The Listing Visibility field (Unconfirmed vs. Confirmed) and the definition of "New" for each tool are the items that can make these confusing. Hotsheet: The Hotsheet logs a listing as "New" when the listing is first created by the user (the "true" input date), but this "new" listing will not be viewable on the Hotsheet until it is confirmed by MLS staff. Market Monitor: Listings are not shown on the Market Monitor under "New" until they are Confirmed. When a listing is Confirmed, a field rule updates the input date to the date the listing was Confirmed, which causes the listing to be added to the "New" section of the Market Monitor.This update of the input date via field rule does NOT update the "true" input date as far as the Hotsheet is concerned.If a listing is inputted by the user and Confirmed by MLS Staff on the same day, the listing will appear in both the "New" section of the Market Monitor and the "New" section of a Hotsheet Search. If a listing is inputted by the user but does not get Confirmed by MLS Staff until the next day (or later), the listing would show as "New" on the Hotsheet for the date it was input by the user - even if that date has already passed - but "New" on the Market Monitor for the date the listing was Confirmed by staff. EXAMPLE: 9/19/19 - Listing is created 9/19/19 - Price is changed 9/23/19 - Expiration Date is changed 9/24/19 - Listing is Confirmed by staff For the above listing, running a Hotsheet prior to when the listing was Confirmed on 9/24 would not return any results for this listing. After 9/24, the above changes will be returned in a Hotsheet search if the date the change was made is included in the specified time range. i.e. to see the Price Change, the Hotsheet search must include the date 9/19. Similarly, for the above listing on the Market Monitor, it would be added as "New" when the listing was confirmed on 9/24. After the listing is confirmed, it could be found in the Price Change section as long as the "Days" back go far enough back to include 9/19.
