Location, Location, Location: RMLSweb Statistics Have a New Home

New statistics menu makes spotting market trends easier

The RMLSweb statistical reports have moved from their previous location under Toolkit to a new Statistics menu on the navigation bar between Prospecting and Realtor Info.

In addition we have rewritten the Market Trends, Market Stats and Inventory reports to improve the searching and results of these reports. For example, Market Trends Report will now allow you to search up to 36 months back and will provide you with inventory accumulation and sale price percent change calculations.

Click the following links for more information about our enhancements to RMLSweb Statistics:

Statistics 101 – Establish Yourself As an Expert.

RMLSweb Statistical Calculations Definitions – The RMLS™ Guide to what statistics are captured and how they’re defined.
