MLS Conversion Update
October 2014
BOOKMARK the  
MOMLS Conversion Website
for all the news and resources you need for
the MLS Conversion.  After the conversion, this will be the website for all the information you need regarding the MLS. 

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Contact Info

All of your contact information (email, phone, etc.) must be updated through Internet Member Services (IMS) at ims.momls.com prior to our launch on Oct. 27th.  This is the email address we will be using for support if you have issues with your login. If you need help with your login, contact Membership Dept.  You WILL NOT be able to change contact information through flexmls. The changes you make to IMS will convert to flexmls daily. If you need help with logging into IMS, contact our Membership Dept. 

 

Saved Searches

MOMLS suggests that you start recreating your saved searches

NOW as NOT ALL THESE WILL CARRY OVER FROM THE LIST IT TO FLEXMLS.  We suggest that you start to edit and revise your searches at this point, eliminating those that you do not need or use. 

 

Click here to download a guide to saving your searches.   

 

As of Oct. 14, you will be able to log into flexmls to start recreating your saved searches before we go live. However, DO NOT ATTACH A SEARCH TO YOUR PROSPECTS YET. The flexmls programmer will be pulling one last update to your prospects before we go live and that will overwrite anything you have done in flexmls as far as attaching a search, updating a prospect or adding a new one. If you need to update or add a prospect, do it in List It before the cutover on Oct. 27th.
