Status Mapping
The following table explains how all the various status that we receive from MLS are mapped to the Buying Buddy status.
| MLS Listing Status | MLS Status Notes | RESO StandardStatus | RESO Definition | Buying Buddy Status | Banner |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Coming Soon | Coming soon listings are treated as Active and are always included in search results with a banner that says "Coming Soon". The search form does not support searching for just 'coming soon' status. It is possible to create a display of 'coming soon' properties by using the listing_status filter. For Property Alerts, coming-soon will be shown in the alerts. |
