The Review
In our continued effort to spotlight and bring agents the best real estate products for agents we did a review of dsSearchAgent– a highly adaptable idx search functionality for Independent Agents and Brokers alike.
Save Money!
As a quick reminder dsSearchAgent offered to essentially wave the $200 setup fee for Agent Genius readers- this special offer is set to expire this weekend. So if you were procrastinating, you may want to go ahead and make the connection to Diverse Solution and get the ball rolling. Mention your Agent Genius code [AG6108] and save $200!

Thanks Benn! I took advantage of this. You can also combine this offer with a subscription discount if you pay for a year in advance.

Mariana, I had called back in April after I saw it implemented on Jay’s site. Corey explained that there was not enough demand for my MLS. I just called back again to see if anything has changed but alas it has not. I was offered the chance to pay $2500 for the initial set up but I think I’ll wait.

Jeff – I was given that same option. I will be waiting as well … My current IDX is doing great in the meantime.

Hey guys – We do cover most major markets through out the U.S. That doesn’t mean we don’t have some of the smaller markets because we do. Obtaining, normalizing, mapping and maintaining property data and photos for every MLS out there, around 1300, is a monumental task and does take some time as you can imagine. Currently we are adding a new MLS’s every month in the areas we get the most interest from. From time to time we do get customers that can’t wait for us to get to their MLS. So we offer a premium setup and we will go get the MLS data they want. Our prices to vary from MLS to MLS, they range between $49.95 and $99.95 a month. Mariana – I’ll be sure to put Colorado Springs on the list of future MLS’s to do.

Hi Justin,
Any chance to add the the Garden State MLS to the list as well? With such a feature rich and great looking product is it tough to wait. In the meantime I am seeing if I can find some other agents who may be interested as well.
C;mon you all of you GSMLS members out there raise your hands…

Thanks Justin! Question: If I fork out the $2,500 can I have area exclusivity for a year?

Great question Mariana I was thinking the same thing.

Mariana – The question has never came up from any of our customers to be homest with you. Which does suprise me. Currently we are not allowing an exclusive but we’ll kick the idea around a little more over on our end.

My clients like using the dsSearchAgent. It’s a great product. We are waiting for a Team Solution so we can use it on our Long Beach website as well as others and replace parkplace.

Just to follow-up now that I’ve had it for awhile, I’m getting rave reviews from my clients. They love the integrated tools, including the schools and crime info. I know it has been directly responsible for new clients and sales.

Jay – We do have a team solutions available and have had one for some time. I believe you looked at it a while back when it was a signle agent solution. Over the last few month we have made even more improvements to this. Give us a call and we’ll show you how it works.

Justin – I talked to Sean about the current Team Solution. We need a few more features to make a move. I gave him an idea of what is needed for our increased productivity.
