MLS — Multiple Listing Service. An MLS is an organization that collects, compiles and distributes information about homes listed for sale by its members, who are real estate brokers.

And as your family head count grows, this can become more and more difficult, especially in smaller homes and apartments.

But a few design ideas that can help you create just the space you need to squeeze in a few extra bodies. If you’ve got a growing brood on your hands, take a glance at these photos. In the busiest households, having room for everyone will give you one less thing to worry about.
