What do the statuses in the MLS mean?

In CCIMLS, each listing has a status associated with it. That status tells the current situation of the property.

Coming Soon - No Showings

The Coming Soon-No Showings status is an option for agents to use if they will be publicly marketing a property as a coming soon listing and prior to any showings. Coming Soon listings must be submitted and entered into the MLS within forty-eight (48) hours or within one (1) business day of public marketing, whichever is sooner, using the Coming Soon-No Showings or Active status. The ban on showings includes showing it to other agents in your brokerage, or a private, virtual showing.

The following are important details to note regarding the use of the Coming Soon-No Showings status:

• Coming Soon-No Showings listings will automatically change to Active on the Start Showing Date
• Active listings may not be entered back into the Coming Soon-No Showings status
• Listings may be manually switched to the Active status prior to the Start Showing Date
• Listings will not be disseminated to IDX or public portal websites
• Listings are not available in email subscriptions nor can they be viewed by clients in the portal
• Listings may be viewed on the My Listings gadget, the Hot Sheet gadget, and will also be available in the status options on a search
• Days on Market will not calculate in this status

Active

Property is available for showings to any cooperating agent, with no accepted offers. Any limitations on showings should be noted in 'Private Remarks'.

Active - With Kick Out

Properties in this status have to be shown and will be distributed as Active with a disclosure that there is a kick-out and the kick-out reason. These listings will continue to calculate Days on Market and will Expire on the listed Expiration Date. Status change needs to be made within the MLS within twenty-four (24) hours of the accepted offer.

Pending - Continue to Show
