What are the benefits of listing my property with you?
How much does it cost to use REOS?
First of all, be wary of websites who list all of the properties for free as they often make money by selling your personal information to other companies over and over. We do not do this! Real Estate Online Search is a professional and ethical real estate portal company.
We offer promo codes from time to time so make sure to visit our Special Offer page.
At Real Estate Online Search, we have no hidden costs, no taxes and no commissions. The price you see is what you pay. Our advertising plans range from 67 cents per listing per month to $20 per listing per month depending on your selection . Prices are discounted if you sign up for more months. We also offer multiple listing- discounts if you have several properties to advertise. This is a great option for real estate agents.

How many listings can I post under one account?
You can list as many properties as you contracted for. For instance, if you want to list two properties using the same account information and you only have a one listing-account, you would need to upgrade to a multiple listing account. You can also choose to open a secondary account thought it would be more affordable and easier to manage to upgrade your membership level.
If you already set up and account for a single listing, choose an advertising package for your first property and post it. Once this is done, you can go back to your account, add a property and you will receive a prompt to upgrade in order to add a new listing.

If you are not receiving feedback from the vendors and still would like to communicate with them, contact us and we will try to make contact with them as we might have an alternate email address on file.

The vendors and buyers are responsible for handling all the negotiations about the sale and purchase of the property. We do not provide such services but are happy to offer hyperlinks to companies which do.
Can you help me find the type of property I am looking for?
Yes, we can help you. All you have to do is email us details on the type of properties you are interested in and we will get back to you shortly.
What are the requirements to be listed in the Agent Directory?
- You must have active listings on our website.
- You must be a "real" real estate agent or real estate representative.
How do I submit my agent profile?
Simply make sure your account is set to User Type "Owner's Agent" under ACCOUNT section of your member dashboard.
How do I edit my agent profile?
When you log in to your dashboard, you can edit information for any listings from the “Listed Properties” tab, Account information from the “Account” tab, Billing information from the “Billing” tab, as well as edit Agent related information from the “Agent Profile” tab if you are signed up as a real estate agent.

You can choose a plan that allows you have 1 or more listings, and the length of time your plan will last.

I forgot my username and/or password.
Your username is the email address you provided when signing up with us. Your password is the one you choose while registering. If you have saved our confirmation email in your email program, simply open the email and you will see your login credentials. If this is not possible, click here and we will send another email with your username and password to the email address you provided during your registration.

The member log-in section is located on the top right of each page.
Once signed in, you can edit any part of your profile such as the contact name, email address, phone number, address, etc ... by clicking ACCOUNT. We suggest you edit your profile whenever such change occurs.
How often can I edit my profile information?
You can access your account and edit your profile as many times as you need to. We do not place a limitation on the number of accesses.
What should I include in the property detailed description?
Since we do not restrict how much information you place in your property detailed description, you can type as much as or as little as you would like. Yet, you must understand that sometimes too much information is just that… too much information.
Properties must be described in English only. You should include a summarized description of your property. Focus only on the positives. Use space between paragraphs and important sentences. The use of bullet points is an effective way to highlight the assets of your property without having to write long sentences. We bly suggest that you do not use abbreviations or write in capital letters only since it makes it difficult to read.
Refrain from using htlm coding within your Listing Description unless you are familiar with coding. We suggest typing directly in the box or copying from a MS Word file.
If you have chosen to show your name, phone number or email, there is no need to add it in the detailed description. Visitors will be able to see this information on your listing.
Making the perfect detailed description for your property takes preparation. You might want to update it from time to time with new ideas you come up with.
How do I choose what I want people to see about me?
As the manager of your account you can control the information you want the public to see on your listing.
If you are an agent, you might want to show more information such as your company name, fax number, address and so forth. Also, as an agent, make sure you make your listing a Owner's Agent in the ACCOUNT section of your dashboard. This way can also promote your real estate services.
For additional information about this special free service click here.
My recent changes do not show when I view my listing.
What is the difference between the two user types?
We offer two user types for each of our plans: Property Owner and Property Agent.
Note that you can switch back and forth between the two at any time after you create your account.
The only difference between the two is, if you select the user type Property Agent, you will have the opportunity to be listed on our Agents Search Directory. To be listed is complimentary to all of our registered members.
As a Property Agent, you will be able to enter your information from your membership dashboard which will make your profile automatically appear on our Agents Search. This is a great way to increase your exposure to both buyers and sellers in need of a professional real estate agent.
Again this service is completely free of charge; all that we ask if you only use it if you are a real estate agent. Note that our team monitors this page often and will remove any person who is not representing him or herselves truthfully and professionally.
If you do not wish to be listed and are an agent, simply select the option Property Owner.
Do not hesitate to email us should you have additional questions on the matter.
How many photographs can I use on my listing?
My photographs won't upload.
What about if I do not have digital photos?
Though we suggest digital photographs, you have the option to scan a printed photo to a digital file. Once this is done, you can upload the file in your listing as you would with a digital photograph. If you do not have a scanner, you can visit your local copier/printer shop or Internet café. Often times, they provide scanning services. The quality of scanned photos is generally not as high as pure digital photographs. It will depend on the quality of the original photo, the scanner used and the manner it is scanned.
How do I renew a listing that has already expired?
You can still log on into your account unless your account has been entirely deleted from our network either upon your request or our decision. After entering your username and password, you will see your profile but your listing will show as inactive. To reactivate it, simply click on the reactivate button and our software will walk you through the steps. It should only take a few minutes.
