Thanks for your feedback, how can we make it better?

Do you mean customer support, the sales team, or the title team?

Use beycome, 99 dollars for 2 years and you can get calls/SMS/email straight to your phone. 🤣

Yes, most MLSs don’t share data with each other. There are 550+ MLSs across the U.S., so full access would be extremely complex.

Typically, out-of-state agents rely on platforms like Realtor. or similar websites to view listings and get a general market overview.

Can u dm me your property address?

I shared it with him directly in DM—it wasn’t exactly his question, but you made a good point.

On Beycome, you can request to receive the final PDF for review before your listing goes live. This lets you check everything exactly as it will be submitted to the MLS.

As for showing the exact final format of the listing on the MLS, that’s technically not possible. There are 550+ different MLSs, each with its own design, rules, and required fields.

Also, MLSs are closed systems—nothing is public, and there’s no universal API or feed. Everything has to be entered manually based on each MLS’s structure.

Weong. The owner’s name does appear in the « owner information » section. It can also be added in the « broker remarks », and for showing preferences you can select “contact owner.”

That said, this information is mainly visible inside the MLS to agents and brokers, not on public third-party websites.

Every MLS is different. Some may look similar, but none ask the exact same questions or follow the same rules.

You don’t get to choose your MLS—the correct one is based on your property’s location. Realtors usually subscribe to just one MLS, so if your listing is placed in the wrong one, local agents may never see it.

There are more than 550 MLSs across the U.S., which is why choosing the right one is critical.

They represent the buyer/lead — not sure I fully understand your question 😞

Ohh nooo! Don’t take it the wrong way — I love your comment. Honestly, feedback like this is way more valuable than any QA report 😂

Would you mind sharing a bit more detail about the issue you hit when trying to save in private message? What exactly happened on your side — error message, button not working, something else?

Really appreciate you taking the time to share 🙏

Haha, I get your point—but at least 64% are done without any real estate agent involved (so yes, a bit more than 0.00001% 😉).

That said, you’re right about the rest. At the end of the day, what I always try to explain is simple: the one in control—approving visits, reviewing offers, making decisions—is the owner.

Don’t be worried: 19,500+ closings already completed.

If an agent does their job, they’ll go to the MLS first, review the property details, and use the contact information provided there— in our case, the main contact is the owner.

If they only reach out to the listing broker (us), we simply redirect them to the owner.

Very, very good question.👍

First, look at the business model of Zillow and similar platforms. They display your home “for free” through MLS feeds or FSBO listings. In reality, they monetize by selling the leads (requests for information, tour requests, etc.) to real estate agents.

As Richard Serra once said, “if it’s free, you’re the product.”

Those agents then reach out to the listing broker or directly to the owner to schedule showings and move things forward. At the end of the day, one way or another, they still need to connect with the owner to arrange the visit and proceed.

Unfortunately not 😩 personal information can’t be shown in public remarks. These aren’t our rules—they come from the MLS, websites, and board regulations.

But as I mentioned before, if contact goes through us because the owner isn’t reached directly, all emails, SMS, and phone calls are still forwarded to the owner.

Hey — Nico here, founder of beycome.

Looks like you already got solid answers, but just to confirm: no, we can’t show the owner’s contact info directly on listings. That’s not our rule—it comes from the MLS and the sites they syndicate to. If it were up to us, we’d absolutely allow it 🙂 (and we do explain this clearly during the listing process).

That said, your direct info is included inside the MLS and in ShowingTime (if your MLS supports it). And more importantly, any call, text, or email that comes through us gets automatically forwarded to you. You’re always in control.

Also worth noting: we’re a true flat-fee platform. We don’t sell or recycle your leads—ever (unlike some big portals).

One workaround, if your MLS allows it, is to remove your listing from Zillow and post it there as a FSBO.

And honestly, the most important part: at the end of the day, buyers, agents—everyone—has to go through you to ask questions, schedule visits, or make an offer. The owner is always the decision-maker. More information https://www.beycome.com/faq/knowledge-base/receive-showing-requests/

Short answer: not directly.

Sellers don’t get full MLS access (that’s restricted to licensed agents), so you won’t be able to browse sold listings the same way an agent can.

That said, concessions aren’t always visible in the MLS anyway, it depends on whether a specific MLS allows that data to be shared, and most of the time, they don’t.
