MLS is old school

I've felt for some time that the MLS is outmoded, monopolistic, and pointless. It is a classic legacy monopoly like Microsoft, except it does not even have the efficiencies of a typical monopoly. The success of craigslist ads, despite crummy interface, testifies to people's desire for a new way.

I am going to start off the discussion with some thoughts on MLS. NAR should step up and create a national MLS system. The time is now. Information could be standardized, sharing information would be easier. A national MLS could be the “place for all real estate info.” NAR is overly concerned about protecting information and its members.
