Through an exclusive marketing agreement between Prudential Real Estate Affiliates, Inc. and Yahoo!

Consumers anywhere who visit Yahoo!, click on Real Estate and type in Chattanooga or its zip code migrate to the Prudential RealtyCenter.com website, where they have access to current listings information on all Chattanooga area homes listed with the local Multiple Listing Service (MLS).
In addition to viewing local listings, consumers can get market statistics such as property values in local neighborhoods, area school and neighborhood profiles, maps and driving directions and more.
Viewers who choose to register on the site will receive enhanced information including price change and new listing alerts, virtual home tours and the ability to set up their own portfolio to save properties that interest them.
