Phoenix Homes Search Near Bus Stop Or Light Rail Station
Posted by Artur Ciesielski on Thursday, May 12th, 2011 at 2:48pm.Because of the increasing use of public transportation this website has made a few additions to the Phoenix homes search ability.
Users are now able to view and search homes near the light rails stations or bus stop. These options are under the 'Community Features' section in the homes search along with other options.
We do have an extensive page detailing each of the Valley Metro Light Rail stations and the homes around there, but this addition allows home searches more control over the search especially since this selection can be combined with any of the other criteria to hone in on the specific types of homes being searched for.
There is also the ability to search for properties near a bus stop.
A caveat. This data is dependent on how the listing brokers input the information into the MLS. On occasions I have seen homes listed as being 'near light rail stop' that were a mile or more away. Clearly few will venture to walk a mile to get to a station. Some don't know you can select this and the properties may not show up.
That's where the light rail section comes in to help. Those specially pre-made searches are map based so all properties within walking distance - up to 1,500 feet from a station - will be included irregardless of what the listing broker put into the MLS.
We're ever expanding the website and its abilities to suite our users needs. If there is something you ever need adjusted or added please let us know.
