free IDX MLS Home search
The Free IDX MLS Home Search allows you to search the database that real estate agents search. I will walk you through this below. If you are interested in just getting started, click this sentence and you will be taken to the “Advanced Search” portal.
Main Portal page
#1. Refine Your Search
Advanced Search – The most popular way to search. You can use this to search for anything
Condo Search – The same as “Advanced Search”, but condo / townhome specific. See #2 for more specific search advice.
MLS Number Search – Enter the MLS number or numbers to pull up the property(ies) information.
Foreclosure Search – This will target homes in foreclosure, or owned by banks.
Sold Search – Simlar to “Advanced Search”, but only returns sold properties.
Address Search – Enter the address of the property and keep an eye on the drop down menu. Choose the property on the menu.
#2. Location
City – Choose the city where you are looking. The Denver Matrix MLS services the metro Denver Area and Colorado Springs. While you may find a property or two available in, say Aspen, it will not be reflective of what is actually available in Aspen.
Zip Code – Choose this selection if you are looking in a particular zip code. You can select multiple zip codes by using CTRL.
Neighborhoods – You can use this to be neighborhood specific, but if the neighborhood was misspelled, then you won’t see it. I recommend keeping your search broad and then using the mapping tool “Map Search” on this page or “Interactive Map Search” on the results page to delineate your neighborhood.
#3. Property Details – Click on which type of properties you would like to be included in the search.
#4. Parameters – Choose your parameters. The more parameters that you choose, the less results.
#5. Search – Click this button when your are ready to view your property search results.
#6. Map Search – Your property results are shown on a map. You can use the polygon tool to delineate what you want to see.
