What's an MLS?

MLS is an abbreviation for "Multiple Listing Service."  These are the services that provide listing information to realtors and their customers throughout the country.   Each region has its own MLS system.  In Hawaii, the largest MLS system is operated by the Honolulu Board of Realtors.  Listings are primarily for the island of Oahu. They also have listings for Maui, Kauai and the Big Island.   As a member of the Honolulu Board of Realtors, Mike Bates is able to present the listings on this website for public access.
