The Multiple Listing Service

The REALTORS® Association of Maui--the Voice of Real Estate on Maui--recommends dealing with a Realtor, one who has earned the right to use the "R" logo. You know this person has had the education, training, and experience that you want in a professional. After all, if you buy property on Hawaii, you want someone in your corner who knows the market, the land, and the law.

Only real estate agents who are members of the local Multiple Listing Service (MLS) are authorized to access listing data. The MLS is a service that real estate agents use to exchange listing information among themselves. The advantage to the buyer/seller is that they are not limited to just the listings of their particular real estate agent. A real estate agent representing a buyer interested in Maui property, for instance, would be able to use the MLS to find out all properties that are listed on the market.
