When a match lists, you get an email with photos, price, and details. Reply or call us and we'll schedule a showing — often same day.

The Bakersfield Market

In This Market, Being First Isn't Optional

Bakersfield has consistently been one of California's most competitive affordable markets. Here's why serious buyers set up alerts before they start looking.

18 Days

Average Days on Market

Homes in Bakersfield typically sell within three weeks — and the best ones go faster. Buyers who wait for a weekend to look are often too late.

Day One

When Offers Come In

It is common for desirable homes to receive offers the same day they list. Real-time MLS alerts put you in a position to tour and offer before a home is buried in showings.

24–48 hrs

Delay on Third-Party Sites

Zillow and Realtor.com can lag behind the actual MLS by one to two days. Our alerts come straight from the source — so you're never looking at yesterday's inventory.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often will I receive listing alerts?

Alerts are sent in real time — the moment a matching home hits the MLS, you get an email notification. In a fast market like Bakersfield, waiting even 24 hours can mean missing a home. Most of our buyers prefer immediate alerts so they can schedule showings the same day.

Are these real MLS listings or third-party aggregators?

These are direct MLS listings — the same database Realtors use. Third-party sites like Zillow and Realtor.com can lag 24–48 hours behind the actual MLS. Our alerts come straight from the source, so you see homes the moment they list.

What areas does My Realty Company, Inc. cover?

We cover all of Kern County, including Bakersfield, Tehachapi, Rosamond, Shafter, Wasco, and surrounding communities. Set your preferred neighborhoods in the form and we will narrow the alerts to exactly what you are looking for.

How do I cancel or modify my alert?

Easy. Reply to any alert email or contact us directly and we will update or remove your preferences immediately. No cancellation fees, no locked-in commitment.
