Can I Get Alerts for New Listings?

Yes. Portal alerts, agency pages, and a page monitor each cover a different part of the new-listing window.

Short answer: Yes. You can receive alerts for new listings from Zillow, Redfin, and Realtor.com saved searches, from a local agency's new-listing page, or from a page monitor on a specific search. Portal alerts are free and broad; a monitor is better for one street or one agency.

AyeWatch is an AI monitor for public pages and topics. It watches a listing search or agency page and sends an alert when a new property appears.

The free route

Create a saved search on two portals with the same filters and set notifications to instant. This is the fastest way to start and costs nothing. Check the filters monthly, because a saved search silently drifts from your needs.

Use the same area and price range on both so you can compare coverage.

The local route

Find the three agencies that list in your target neighborhood. Watch their new-listing pages. Local agencies often post a listing before it syndicates to the portals, especially for off-market or coming-soon properties.

This is the highest-value habit in a competitive market.

The exact route

A page monitor on a search results URL for your street, building, or school district catches new listings and status changes. It also catches a price cut, which a portal email may not send.

AyeWatch Pro is $9/mo with 50 topics and hourly checks; Pro+ is $19/mo with 200 topics and ASAP mode.

What alerts cannot do

They cannot see a private listing, a pocket listing, or a listing that is not published. They cannot reserve a showing. They notify you; you still have to call.

In a hot market, have your agent ready before the alert fires.

Cost

AyeWatch starts at $9/mo after a 7-day free trial. Pro includes 50 topics and hourly checks.

The Zillow listing alerts guide covers the portal setup.

The bottom line

Start free with two portals. Add one local agency and one street watch. That combination covers the gap between listed and everyone knows.
