Where Real Estate Gets Its Dirt

MFRMLS matches RESO standard on its native MLS system

MFRMLS Removes Non-Standard Data in Native MLS

“Very few people understand the difference between the data that is in the Native database of an MLS and the data that is shipped out of an MLS.

The Real Estate Standards Organization (RESO) has created a Data Dictionary of fields and field enumerations for data being shared with brokers and technology providers. The Native data in the MLS – the data that the broker’s agent enters into the MLS system is custom to every MLS. Not anymore!

My Florida Regional MLS (MFRMLS) is among the first MLSs in the country to adopt the same RESO language in their Native MLS. Here’s why this is important.

Good article from Victor. I think this is a great example of leadership shown by Merri Jo and the rest of the MFRMLS staff.

Seriously zipLogix?

Below is a few of “questions” sent out by zipLogix as part of a “survey” to NAR’s Board of Directors. Apparently it’s part of an effort to help secure zipLogix’s renewal at the upcoming budget meeting at NAR Midyear.

If you can’t read the questions, here’s what they ask….

1. Please choose the answers that most closely describe the value of zipForm(r) to your business.

– I couldn’t do business without it
– It’s the most valuable membership benefit
– I use it regularly and find it valuable
– I would regret not having access to zipForm(r)

Fucking shameless.

The third question is basically a phishing scam to gather intel.

3. If the vote to keep zipForm in the NAR budget was held today, how would you vote?

-Yes
-No

This is just embarrassing. Puts them and the whole renewal process in a bad light.
