MLS Intake Form

Complete all required fields so we can get your listing entered accurately on the MLS.

Time required: ~25–35 minutes. Have your property tax bill, HOA docs (if applicable), and recent utility info handy.
1

Owner & Contact Information

How buyers and agents should reach you for showings and inquiries

NJ requires attorney review period. Having yours ready speeds up the process.

2

Property Details

Core information entered into the MLS for your area

Lead Paint Disclosure required. Homes built before 1978 require a federal Lead-Based Paint Disclosure. A blank form will be included in your post-payment documents. You must complete and provide it to the buyer before any purchase agreement is signed.

ⓘ Resale Certificate reminder: NJ condos and many HOA properties require a resale certificate to be provided to the buyer before closing. Your attorney will confirm whether one is required — make sure to raise this with them early. Request it from your HOA or management company as soon as possible, as it can take 1–2 weeks and typically carries a fee.

Interior Features

Rooms, finishes, and amenities that buyers care about most

Kitchen
Living Spaces
4

Exterior & Lot Features

Outside structure, garage, and outdoor amenities

Important disclosure — buyers will ask. Lease/PPA terms transfer at sale.

5

Utilities & Home Systems

Heating, cooling, water, and sewer — buyers and inspectors will ask

NJ requires disclosure of known underground storage tanks. We'll note this appropriately.

Pricing & Sale Terms

Listing price, buyer agent commission, and what conveys with the sale

Since the 2024 NAR settlement, offering a buyer’s agent commission is not required — the amount is entirely your decision, including zero. Offering compensation can broaden access to buyers working with agents under representation agreements; not offering it keeps your costs lower but may affect how many agents actively show the property. Neither choice is universally right. See the NAR’s consumer guide for a neutral overview. If you upgrade to full service, this is one of the decisions your agent will walk through with you.

Inclusions & Exclusions

🚫 Items EXCLUDED from Sale

List anything that looks permanently attached but is leaving with you — chandeliers, custom draperies, specific appliances, sentimental fixtures, etc. Being explicit here prevents buyer disputes at closing.

⚠️ In NJ, items that appear permanently attached (chandeliers, built-ins, mirrors) are presumed to convey unless explicitly excluded. When in doubt, list it here.

Showings & Property Access

Lockbox code, scheduling instructions, and any access restrictions

Lockbox — Your Responsibility

You must supply and install your own lockbox before your listing goes active. We enter your code into the private, agent-only remarks in the MLS — we do not provide, ship, or install lockboxes.

Type
Combination (dial or push-button) or Bluetooth app-based. Either works. Key-only lockboxes require a physical key — avoid these.
Location
Front door handle or knob is standard. Side gate, garage keypad cover, or a fixed railing are also acceptable. Avoid locations that are not immediately visible to agents.
Code
Use a 4–6 digit code you’ll remember. Do not use your home address, birth year, or any code used for other locks. Change it after your listing closes.

Combination lockboxes are available at most hardware stores. Install it before submitting your photos — your listing will not go active until a lockbox is confirmed in place.

⚠️ Entered into the private, agent-only section of the MLS. Never published publicly. Visible only to licensed MLS members with valid login credentials.

Describe the lockbox type and exactly where agents will find it on the property.

Open house dates are published on the MLS and syndicate to Zillow, Realtor.com, Redfin, and all partner sites. You run the open house yourself — greet visitors, answer questions, and collect contact information. Provide at least 48 hours notice when requesting a date to be entered.

Additional open house dates can be requested any time during your listing term at no extra charge.

Your agent reviews every description for MLS compliance and fair housing adherence before your listing goes active.

You will be notified if changes are made.
