📍 Overview of Intermountain MLS (IMLS)
Intermountain MLS — commonly known as IMLS — is Idaho’s largest Multiple Listing Service, operated by the Boise Regional REALTORS® and Idaho REALTORS®. It serves the majority of the state’s residential real estate market, including Boise, Meridian, Nampa, Idaho Falls, and surrounding areas.
Listings entered into IMLS are automatically syndicated to top consumer sites such as Realtor.com, Zillow, Redfin, and hundreds of IDX-powered brokerage websites — ensuring maximum exposure for sellers.
💡 How Intermountain MLS Works
IMLS connects licensed real estate professionals across Idaho, providing a shared, accurate database of active, pending, and sold listings. The system allows agents and brokers to share information seamlessly and ensure that every property listing remains transparent and up to date.
When you list your property through Brokerless, a licensed Idaho broker places your home directly on the Intermountain MLS. From there, your listing appears on every connected MLS and consumer real estate site — typically within 24 hours. To learn the full process, visit our Idaho MLS listing guide.
