Data-sharing
Two local MLS providers, IRES and Metrolist, are moving towards streamlining their Denver real estate and Boulder real estate listings data. Officially allowing Brokers like myself an “MLS of choice”. Why does this matter? It means that companies like mine that work across multiple MLS zones can now choose to give our business to the MLS provider who (now get this) provides us with the best service. Can you imagine such a thing. It sounds…fair.
Maybe this difficult market will force certain overdue changes in this crazy business.

It’s a small step in the right direction and a far cry from a national MLS. That might be asking a lot, so real estate companies like yours and mine will after do the best we can, with what were giving. That’s not to say that some MLS’s are great, in fact, everyone we work with fabulous.fabulous.
