Exporting Data from RealTracs MLS - Tennessee

RealTracs

In selecting data from RealTracs be sure to select the two options below:

Make sure that all the status options are selected.  Then make sure the “Min” dates will include at least 1/1/2006.  These options will make sure that all the data that is needed to create the appropriate graphs, is collected.  

You should also make your normal selection choice by selecting other options that you would normally select in doing a CMA.  As mentioned earlier, looking at activity in specific subdivisions is a good starting point. 

Once you’ve selected the search criteria, you are ready to download the results.  To download the results, select the  button as shown below. 

When you select the download button, the dialog shown above is displayed.  Select the “All Fields” option and the “Excel” download format.  Then push the  button.  Once the download starts, you will be asked if you want to save the file.  Select the ‘Save’ option and then choose a filename. 

Be sure to remember where you save your file.  This is the exported file that will be used to create your graphs. 

You will see dialog boxes similar to what you see below.

Once you have saved your exported file, you are ready to run the Neighborhood Buying Patterns application.  When you run the application you will need to point to the exported data file, so make sure that you’ve placed the file in an easy to find place.   For instructions on how to run the Neighborhood Buying Pattern application, be sure to see the Neighborhood Buying Pattern manual (installed on your desktop when you installed the application).
