I have been an association or MLS executive since 1984. At MLSListings, we have reinvented the company, developed much of our own technology, we are RETS experts, and we do service extremely well. We have accomplished significant progress establishing very effective collaborations with our neighboring MLS's, as well.

    James Harrison, RCE, CAE President and Chief Executive Officer MLSListings Inc Numerous problems exist surrounding today’s listing syndication. Portals have copies of the same listings from multiple sources and the quality of the data is inconsistent from one listing source to another. Quality data comes from sources synchronized with the MLS or the brokers own internal systems. Any approved recommendation allowing RSS feeds of data will only lead to a degradation and devaluation of real estate data on the internet as a whole—not to mention the inability of organized real estate to enforce IDX rules on RSS software and aggregator providers, as well as other end users. IDX policies and rules were established to protect and safeguard broker listings in the marketplace – not circumvent it for third-party or non-participant use without the broker’s permission.
