As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.

Location

Directions:Google Maps works great, but some GPS apps get the address wrong. So just in case...Starting from I-25 at Highway 14 (Mulberry), head east 1 mile and pass County Road 5. After County Road 5, get in the right lane and then, about 221 yards (yes, I measured it) and on your right, you will see a mailbox "5513." There is a "Private Property - No Trespassing" sign as you enter the driveway which borders a water ditch canal...YOU, of course, are WELCOME!Just follow around along the canal to the home. It's about 3/4 a mile and you will see a brick house nestled in the trees on the right. Yard sign will be present.
