Reciprocal Listing Packet - Ithaca Board of Realtors
Ithaca Board of REALTORS
Reciprocal Packet
Thank you for your interest in listing property with the Ithaca Board of REALTORS® (IBR) Multiple Listing
Service (MLS). The IBR allows REALTORS® to enter their own listings into its MLS once all of the appropriate
documents are received. Please carefully read the following instructions.
Once all documents are received, then IBR staff will give you a login and password. You will have 24 hours
from the time you receive the login and password to enter the listing. If for some reason you are unable to
complete the listing within that time, then the IBR will schedule a new 12-hour timeframe during which time you
may enter the listing. Only one 12 hour extension will be granted.
Cost
Reciprocal Listings are $45 and may be paid for with a credit card or check. Send checks to Ithaca Board of
REALTORS, 200 Pleasant Grove Road, Ithaca NY 14850

a. Room Dimensions are not a required field, but if you want to enter them, you need to have the
respective Room Level as well. One cannot be entered without the other for each respective room.

“None” option or something similar.

On the left-hand side, click on “Photos”. Follow the instructions in the blue box on the page, which are
essentially to click on “Add Photos”, select the photos you wish to use for the listing, and then click on
“Upload”. Alternatively, you may drag and drop the photos onto the page and then click on “Upload”.
a. The photos do not upload in the order you prescribe. Instead, they will upload and be put into the
order by whichever photos upload the fastest. To choose a different order, click on “Sort” and then
drag the photos into the order you wish. When you are finished sorting, click on “Save Sort”.
b. By default, the first photo will be automatically selected as the Primary photo, or the one that will
appear first in the listing and in the main listing displays. The Primary photo will be highlighted in
green. To select a different primary photo, move your cursor over the photo in question. Within the
photo box, another smaller box should appear in the upper-right corner containing three icons: a
star, a pencil, and a trash can. Click on the star icon. This photo will now be the Primary photo.
c. By default, all photos are displayed in landscape (horizontal) orientation, even when the original
photo is in portrait (vertical) orientation. InnoVia automatically displays the middle of the portrait

photo as a landscape photo. To display the entire portrait photo, move your cursor over the photo
in question. The aforementioned smaller box should appear in the upper-right corner again. Click
on the pencil icon. In the new box that pops up, under Options, check the box next to “Use letterboxing”. Drag a box around the entire photo (or whichever part of the photo you want to display in
the listing). Click on “Save”.
d. To add a comment (such as a photo description), move your cursor over the photo in question. The
aforementioned smaller box should appear in the upper-right corner again. Click on the pencil icon.
In the new box that pops up, under “Photo Comment”, type your comment. Click on “Save”.

On the left-hand side, click on “Documents”. Click on the box next to “Label” to select the type of document
you are uploading. Click on the “Browse…” button to select the document for upload. Check the box next

process for all necessary documents for uploading.
