There are 2 reasons this might happen.
1) You may not have “authorized your MLS”. Check out this video on how to do that. (NOTE: If your MLS is not listed, then we have not worked with it yet. Shoot us an email at support@cmasnap.com and we can look into it)
2) If your trial has ended, you must subscribe to continue using reports. Click “Subscribe Now” to activate your account. Here’s a video

- HAR
- CTXMLS
- NWMLS
- NTREIS
- DOORIFY
This means that we have not worked with your MLS before. The technical process is very easy, but we need to have a discussion with the MLS owners. Shoot us an email at support@cmasnap.com if you can help introduce us. (…and thanks!)
Here is our pricing.
Note that we may have special team deals set up with a Brokerage or a whole MLS.
