Third-Party Integration Limitations

There are certain third-party integrations that are essential to Sweet Home Realty’s operation of this website that Sweet Home Realty has no ability to edit. These integrations include the IDX solutions service that allows for Multiple Listing Service (MLS) properties to display and the NextGen / Imagely.com services that allow image galleries of properties to be served.

Through its webmaster agent, Sweet Home Realty has contacted integration service providers and pursued and requested accessibility or the ability to edit from each but has not been able to reach a full accessibility resolution for these services.

Sweet Home Realty will pursue improvements in accessibility of third-party integrations as they become available and/or known to Sweet Home Realty.
