Re/Max North Country, a part of the Greater Iron Mountain Area Multiple Listing Service — MLS, selected The Friends of the Florence County Library to receive its community donation of $500. The funds will go toward this summer’s reading entertainment program themed “Color our World in 2025.” The Greater Iron Mountain Area MLS, which currently has 109 local members, is a group of agents who share property details with other agents in the area, allowing them to connect with buyers and sellers. By listing on the MLS, the property will be exposed to the entire real estate community, increasing visibility and potentially helping it sell faster and at a higher price.
