You're not the listing agent, you're the buyer's agent, so reporting the transaction to the MLS is optional. A frequent complaint that SMLS receives from members is that agents do not include enough detail for these listings to be used as comps, so please add as much detail as possible!

1. You must wait until the transaction has closed to report the sale.
2. You may add the sale within three calendar days following closing* with no penalty. You may add the sale between 4 and 30 days after closing if you're willing to pay a $125 penalty. No listings may be added more than 30 days after closing. *Federal holidays don't count for the initial three-day window. This is the same time period that you have to update a pending listing to sold when you are the listing agent.
3. You must enter accurate property information in all required fields.
4. The listing agent fields (list date, expiration date, etc.) will not be important since the transaction has closed and you're not the listing agent. Do your best with those fields.
5. You must include the required photo of the front, exterior of the structure unless it was a land listing. Do not upload photos to the MLS unless you took the photo yourself or have obtained a license to use it.
6. Once everything is entered and published with the status "Sold Before Process MLS," email SMLS staff with the MLS # and staff will change the listing agent to the placeholder agent name "House Non Member."

No. Translation is complicated, contracts are complicated, and using a translated form creates unnecessary legal risk. Based on comments from the association legal counsel, there are no plans to translate our contract to Spanish because they are difficult to enforce in court due to interpretation issues. The best practice is to have interpreters counsel Spanish-speaking buyers and sellers as to what the English language contract says, putting the risk on the user and not the association.

NOTE: Your broker determines what listings the brokerage will accept. If the mobile home must be relocated after purchase, then it definitely does not meet the leasehold definition.

The Sunflower MLS, Inc., Board of Directors has approved the entry of mobile or manufactured homes located in mobile home parks into the MLS. All applicable fields must be completed, just like any other listing. This issue has been addressed multiple times in the past, most recently in June 2019. Legal counsel has indicated that while the mobile home itself does not constitute real estate as defined by KSA 58-3035(n), if it's sold as part of a transaction involving leasing the land in the mobile home park, it would be considered a leasehold, which does fit the statutory definition of real estate.

Clearing your browser's cache is a common troubleshooting step for various browsing issues, like slow loading times or problems viewing updated websites. Think of your browser's cache as a temporary storage area for website files (like images, scripts, and stylesheets). While it's designed to speed up browsing, over time, a cluttered cache can ironically slow things down or cause conflicts with new website versions.

1. Google Chrome

You can clear your Chrome cache using the shortcut Ctrl+Shift+Delete (Windows/Linux) or Shift+Command+Delete (Mac). Alternatively, you can go to the three-dotted menu, select "History," then "Clear Browsing Data," set the time range to "All Time," check the boxes for "Cookies and other site data" and "Cached images and files," and click "Clear Data". Remember to close and reopen Chrome afterward.

2. Mozilla Firefox

Use the shortcut Ctrl+Shift+Delete (Windows/Linux) or Shift+Command+Delete (Mac) to clear your Firefox cache. Another method is to click the menu icon (three horizontal lines), go to "Settings" (or "Options"), select "Privacy & Security," click "Clear Data" under "Cookies and Site Data," check "Cached Web Content," click "Clear," and then close and restart Firefox.

3. Microsoft Edge

The shortcut for clearing cache in Microsoft Edge is Ctrl+Shift+Delete. You can also click the three-dotted menu, go to "Settings," select "Privacy, search, and services," click "Choose what to clear" under "Clear browsing data," select "Cookies and other site data" and "Cached images and files," click "Clear Now," and then completely close Edge.

4. Safari (macOS)

Use the keyboard shortcut Option+Command+E. To manually clear Safari's cache, click "Safari" in the menu bar, then "Preferences," go to the "Privacy" tab, click "Manage Website Data...", click "Remove All," click "Remove Now," and finally go back to the Safari menu and select "Quit".

Important notes

Restarting your browser: It's important to close and restart your browser after clearing the cache for changes to take effect. If possible, restart your computer, not just the browser.

Choosing what to clear: Most browsers allow you to choose which data to clear. If you only want to clear cached files, uncheck other options.

Cookies: Clearing cookies will log you out of most websites. Do it anyway. A broken cookie could be what is causing your problems.
