MLS Listing Sheet Abbreviations

When you are looking through listings from Multiple Listing Srevice formerly known as MLSNI now known as MREDLLC, you will see a lot of abbreviations, often confusing. I made up this page as a little "cheat sheet", to explain some of them.

Call 847-452-1504 or email Jo Ann MacMillan, Coldwell Banker sales agent, with questions or to make an appointment

You can also search right here from my site where the words are actually spelled out to make it easy for you.
