My guess is that most consumers wouldn't get that distinction in that they probably don't even know what "MLS" stands for... and myself, once I saw "homes for sale", I never would have thought to look elsewhere for the "comprehensive" list of homes for sale. Fascinating…

Does this change mean that you guys are still showing all the MLS listings (via a Prudential IDX feed), but giving preference to the local brokers (over Prudential), when they have uploaded their listings, or are you now ONLY displaying listings from brokers when they have giving you a feed? Brian,

Will they still come up first because of their strategic partnership with yahoo? That is one reason I personally don't use yahoo that much or tell clients to search there.
