On February 13th ROAM will be making 3 updates to the Paragon system.
- Removal of Bayou Board of REALTOR MLS Areas
All MLS areas beginning with the letter B will be removed from Paragon. Listings in those areas will have the Area field set to “None”
Action: If you have a saved search that uses one of the areas that begin with B you will need to use a different field to filter the search such as parish, city, zip code, or by drawing a shape on the map.
- Changes to Utility Electric Feature Group
To move towards a standard features list across all ROAM systems some options will be removed from the UTILELEC picklist. The options that are being removed are:
- Generator Only
- Underground
Action: Users with listings or saved searches with one of the above options selected will need to select a different ETILELEC option. None and Unknown will remain as options.
- Changes to how concessions are recorded
ROAM is changing how concessions are recorded so that more details are available for users. Four new Concessions fields will be added to the Sold information when closing a listing. The fields are listed below. The system will auto sum the four fields to populate the Concessions Amount Field.
- Concessions Closing Costs
- Concessions Property Improvement costs
- Concessions Financing Costs
- Concessions Other Costs
Field Rules: 1) If Concessions = Yes/Y, then the sum of the four fields cannot be 0 2) The sum of the four fields must be less than the List Price.
Action: None. If an office admin or personal assistant closes out your listings be sure to provide information for the four new fields.
