Springfield Board News

* The Board would like to WELCOME new REALTOR members:  Jill Hagerman w/Roediger Realty;  Kate Wilson w/ReMax Client Choice; and TRANSFERRED REALTOR member Mary Kreitzer w/Dream Home Realty.

* For those of you who get property information online at the Clark County GIS site , you might have noticed that the "square footage" on the residential page & tax card show a higher square footage than the first/second floors actually have.
 
Upon questioning from a Realtor, the GIS department responded quickly & added this disclaimer in parentheses (includes finished basement). Now, we will be able to accurately show above grade square footage in the MLS.
 
Any other questions or concerns about the GIS- know that they will investigate & address quickly!  Thanks GIS Department!
