Key Steps For Productive Home Searches

Use Online Resources

  • Search all MLS Listings and use the other Property Search functions in the Tool Bars at the right side of each page on NewEnglandMoves.com
  • Read about and understand the Home Buying process
  • Register for New England Moves MyPageSM to get email alerts on all MLS listings, Open Houses, save property listings, and track your favorite streets
  • Read our Open Houses section for helpful hints on online open house searches
  • For luxury property buyers, we offer exceptional properties through Coldwell Banker PREVIEWS International

Access Experience

Once you find the right professional, be sure to explain your goals completely and ask to be informed as soon as relevant homes become available. Also, understand what additional resources the firm offers to assist your search. Tour homes with your agent and visit Open Houses; this will give you a sense for the market, and provide helpful information to the agent.

Be Flexible

New listings may become available on a daily basis from participating Multiple Listing Services (MLS). In a competitive market, these properties may sell rapidly. Inform yourself about local home values and obtain mortgage pre-approval early in your home search process, so that you can move quickly.
For help searching for homes or to set-up your own confidential New England Moves MyPageSMcontact us.

Open Houses

Visiting Open Houses can be an important step in your search for the perfect home.
Here are a couple of helpful hints:
  • Search for our Open Houses online: Open Houses are typically entered on NewEnglandMoves.com between Tuesday and Thursday for the following weekend
  • Screen properties online by viewing the home movie prior to visiting Open Houses: it will help you to save time and prioritize your trip
  • Print the listing page, map, and directions from this site: they will be helpful as you visit Open Houses
  • Save the listing to your New England Moves MyPageSM: you will receive automatic updates each time the status of a property changes
