Paragon MLS Enhancement Release 5.94 on March 29

Property Search Agent and Office Field Auto-Complete: We have made changes to all property search Agent dropdown fields so that they now display the agent’s user code and whether the agent is inactive. The list will sort by first and last name, then status with the active agents appearing first.

Statistical Reports – Market Activity by Location: Market Activity by Zip and Month report has been upgraded to allow users to group the report results by other location fields besides zip/postal code.

Paragon Connect – Listing Maintenance: While viewing your published listings with the listing maintenance module, you can now use the overflow menu on each listing to pull up the full listing detail report. This allows you to quickly examine the listing information.

Review all of the enhancements here. Watch a short video here.

If you have any questions, please call our MLS Tech Support at 925.730.7100 or email us at techsupport@bayeast.org.

Downtime Maintenance Window: Tuesday, March 28 from 10pm to 4am PST.

Daylight Savings time is here, bringing you longer days and more sunlight to show your clients listings! Although the time changed on your clocks, they didn’t change on your lockboxes.

The default showing time for all Supra lockboxes during Daylight Savings time is 8am to Midnight. If the showing hours for a lockbox were programmed for a specific time, those hours are now one hour later than the original programmed time (8am to 8pm becomes 9am to 9pm).

Supra Support is available seven days a week from 5am to 7pm at 877.699.6787.

Bay East is pleased to announce a data share with the Combined Los Angeles/Westside MLS (The MLS™/CLAW). The data will be available in Paragon mid-March. 

You will be able to search over 40 areas in Los Angeles, including Malibu, Beverly Hills, and Hollywood, agents will have access to data from 16,000 real estate professionals in the Paragon system. To see full The MLS™/CLAW area coverage please visit this website and click on the areas you are interested in. 

It’s important to note that current keys will not work in the CLAW MLS area, as they cannot be co-oped. To use keys in that area, you must become a member of the CLAW MLS.
