Newer Features Added to Realcomp’s Realist® Product

Realist® was recently enhanced to include two (2) newer features for our REALTOR® subscribers; 1) Flood Zone tabular data and 2) School Zone boundary data.


Flood Zone Data

The Flood Zone tabular data now appears in the Property Detail Report under the “Location Information” section (shown below). This feature now provides you with the Flood Zone Code, Flood Zone Date, and Flood Zone Panel data for properties accessible through Realist®.

Once you’ve obtained this data for a particular property and want to learn more about what is means, you may want to reference the “How To” webpage on the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) website.




School Zones

Local school districts and schools themselves can play an important role in your customer’s home buying process. That is why Realcomp’s Realist® program was recently enhanced to provide you with mapping visuals for elementary, middle, and high school boundaries.

To access these, once you have a Realist® map view displayed for a property, choose the “Boundaries” icon (shown in the image below, next to arrow 1) which will display all available selections. Then choose the appropriate school type (shown in the image below, next to arrow 2). The color-coded boundary overlays will appear on your map, along with the names of the schools for the areas shown.



Feel free to try these new functions out and let us know what you think!

Through our strategic partnerships, Realcomp is able to offer our MLS Subscribers access to the latest in technology – providing “Tools of the Trade” to Michigan REALTORS® since 1994.
