Steve Dominic’s Summary

Managing Broker for IDX Solutions, Inc. We are an Internet Content Publisher specializing in Internet Data Exchange (IDX) public-display of MLS Listings for broker lead generation. We also advertise using Google AdSense, generate and close leads for Custom Closets, and publish our own real estate related content for Resort Homes (including video).

Currently, we are able to publish all of the MLS homes for sale in the Denver MLS, San Diego MLS, Boston MLS, Sacramento MLS, San Francisco East Bay MLS, Houston MLS, Summit County MLS, Fort Collins MLS, Orange County MLS, and Riverside MLS.

Our closing-based commission-split fees are based on a direct partnership with our participating brokers. We do not charge simply for a click-through or for a contact that does not end up working with you. We are proud of our broker-retention record.
