The Listing Cart is a Custom Ocala MLS Search
A Listing Cart is a custom search on the Ocala/Marion County MLS that creates an account with an ID and password. A buyer will use my Dream Home Finder to provide the information that I need to set up a search. I sometimes use the Dream Home Finder AS IS and I sometimes need to email the buyer to clarify some issue or to make a recommendation. Once the search is set buyers will get an automatic email when ever a new home, that conforms to their search criteria, gets listed. After setting up the Listing Cart I don’t contact my buyers unless they contact me for more info, want to change their search or are ready to see a home. I once had a Listing Cart set up for a buyer from Chicago and it took him 3 years to close down his business and sell his house. I’m very patient.
I can’t help buyers who don’t give me enough information. Too many people will use my Dream Home Finder and just fill in Single Family and a price range. A search like that will get 1,000 hits, no kidding. I need to your your price range. The sq ft of living area, not including the garage or Lanai. The type of home, single family, 55+, farm ect. There is also a comment section. This is where you tell me that you want to see foreclosures or only want a 55+ community with lower HOA fees.
Below is a screen shot showing what the listing cart looks like. There would be numerous listings below the one shown. The Listing Cart will hold up to 100 properties. You can see the blue tool bar in the lower right of the listing. The legend above, which collapses, shows what each button does. There is a detailed view which gives things like size, number of bedrooms, lot size, ect. You can take a virtual tour if there is one. You can email your listing to someone. You can rate a listing and make a comment or a note. All images provided by the listing agent are available. Only 1 image is required by the Ocala MLS but there can be up to 25 pictures. You can print a listing. There will be some homes that you just don’t like so there is a delete button. I tell buyers to ignore the last 2 options. I don’t text and if you want to schedule a showing it’s better to call or email me.
Thank you so much for the wealth of information on homes in the Ocala area of Florida.
Two Canadian families are interested in “winter” homes and as you would expect, we see foreclosed properties as the first group of homes to look at for this need.
I would appreciate some direction in doing the above. I will be happy to give you as much information as you require.

Morning April
I’ll email you so that we can start a conversation about what you want in a 2nd home
Please send information on homes for sale in the Quail Meadow division. It appears to be the least expensive with regard to monthly charges. I am not interested in manufactured homes.
I’ll set you up a Listing Cart for Quail Meadow 55+ community. Quail Meadow does have the lowest 55+ HOA fees in the Ocala area. 55+ communities are about activities and life style and not just being 55+. If you don’t want to pay HOA fees you should consider non 55+ sub divisions all of which are full of retired people.
I don’t like manufactured homes either. Our home prices are so low here there is no reason to consider them in my opinion.
Looking to move to the central FL area from NJ. Looking at Rainbow Lake Estates, Dunnellon area, Citrus springs, Beverly Hills. Would like a newer Home (2000′s) 3 Bedroom, 2 Bath, 2 Car garage, large lot. Pool would be nice but not deal breaker.
I sent you a link with homes in Rainbow Lakes area. Beverly Hills is in another county so I can’t help there.
I would like a listing cart of your properties. $55,000 and below in Oak run.2/1200 square feet. Thank you,liz
Sorry but as of today there are no homes in Oak Run bigger than 1200 sq ft and under $55,000-. You need to increase your budget to $60K to $75K
Morning Dennis
I’ll look to see what I can find & email you a few listings. Generally 2000 sqft is too large a house for under $130K. We have a lot of 55+ homes here under $100K but they would also be under 1500 sqft. I will see what I can find & email you
I am looking for a del web home in the Ocala area. 55 community. Our budget is 150,000 tops. Anything in sales or resales in Stone Creeh
Your budget is too low for Stone Creek
looking for stone creek resales dont want to pay more than 100000.
Nothing in Stone Creek under $150K.
In order to be under $100K you need to look at other communities with older homes from the 80′s and 90′s.
