I must have missed this last week.
Rapattoni Implements First RESO Data Dictionary Certification with MetroList Services, Inc.
“Brian Tepfer, Chief Technology Officer at Rapattoni, said, “The RESO Data Dictionary is commonly referred to as the Rosetta Stone for real estate data because it ensures that each MLS system speaks the same language, using a common standard that defines all data in consistent terms. Establishing this common standard represents a significant achievement for the industry. We’re thankful to MetroList for leading the charge and we’re excited to be the first MLS vendor to provide our customers with Data Dictionary 1.3 compatibility.”
“The standardized mapping of data and delivery of these fields will assist us in releasing products and services to our participants and subscribers,” said Rick Trevino, IT Director of MetroList. “We are looking forward to our first RETS Data Dictionary integration and this accomplishment could not have occurred without the expertise and hard work of Rapattoni’s RETS team.”
Pretty cool. Kudos to Rapattoni and MetroList Services. I kind feel that Standards are like the 4 minute mile. Once someone breaks it, then the rest will follow. It just needs to be shown that it can be done.
