Rebranding is hard.

Technical Capabilities Can Help the Real Estate Industry Navigate Clear Cooperation
“Matrix and Trestle can be used together to support MLSs, brokers and industry players regardless of which direction the Clear Cooperation policy is decided, for example:
-Listings marked as private will be suppressed from broader syndication
-Broker’s agents enter all their listings into the MLS system (Matrix)
-The Broker’s agent chooses the appropriate status when entering a listing, including a ‘private’ status
-Matrix is able to include their ‘private listing’ into the data feed back to the appropriate broker in near real time (via Trestle)
-Listings marked private remain private to the broker, and only that broker
-Listings marked as private are only available in any searches by the broker’s own agents or the broker’s agents’ clients.”–Devi Mateti, President, Enterprise Digital Solutions at CoreLogic
Obviously, each MLS would have to approve this solution, but I like the concept. I had a discussion with another vendor about this, and he pointed out that even beyond CCP, there are still mandatory submission requirements. However, I think brokerages like Compass are signaling that they don’t want to deal with those requirements either.
So yes, this does make it easier for brokerages to implement private networks, which I still oppose. But I believe it’s better to use the MLS system to do so. Why? Well, the data will be cleaner when it’s entered, and if the listing sells off-MLS, it can be added to the MLS system with a simple status change. I think if the listing is first entered into some random private network software, adding it to the MLS later might be an afterthought, leading to incomplete or inaccurate data.
Another point Devi’s post touches on is a glimpse into CoreLogic’s strategy if the whole MLS industry collapses.
Arab MLS and CoreLogic Collaborate to Revolutionize Real Estate in the Arab Region
“A comprehensive project was swiftly executed to extend the Matrix platform to support Arabic, ensuring the user experience meets the expectations of Arabic speakers for an intuitive, modern web application. This involved a complete redesign of the UX, including the layout of reports, displays, and screens. Arabic speakers expect navigation elements, icons, and various features to be oriented and function differently compared to English speakers. These capabilities were successfully introduced in July in the Egypt MLS, powered by Arab MLS and CoreLogic. Arab MLS plans to launch in the UAE before year end.”
I wonder if they added “Palace” as a new property type.
“Today’s clients have portals to manage their healthcare, personal finances and education, but there isn’t anything to manage their home,” said Kevin Greene, general manager of Real Estate Solutions at CoreLogic. “CoreLogic solves this problem with OneHomeowner. Just as importantly, it gives agents an effective tool to stay connected in a valuable way and deliver an exceptional homeowner experience to their clients for years.”

With housing inventory levels still at record lows it is going to be important that brokers and agents look at other avenues to retain and grow their business. I think there is a tremendous opportunity for agents who go beyond just the buy and sell aspect of their business and look for opportunities on the nurture side too. They already have their trust, what other services can they provide?
Kevin Greene Promoted to Executive, GM Real Estate Solutions at CoreLogic
“Most recently, Kevin served as the head of the sales team for the Real Estate business segment, where he cultivated deep relationships with key MLS clients and partners. Prior to his tenure at CoreLogic, Kevin held leadership positions in a number of real estate technology companies where he was responsible for business development and product strategy. Additionally, Kevin is a former real estate broker/owner as well as a US Army Veteran.”

Well earned. Congratulations my friend!

Sounds like an add-on for the Clareity Dashboard. I do find it interesting they are continuing to use the “Clareity” moniker. I’d be interested to find out how this would help with ransom-ware attacks that seem to be on the rise in our industry.

“The demand for MLS-Touch from multiple listing organizations and Associations across the US and Canada has been tremendous,” said Charles Drouin, Senior Product Leader at CoreLogic. “We are seeing rapid adoption and usage, with MLS-Touch disrupting the leaderboard and becoming the preferred mobile app used by real estate agents today,” he added.”

Bravo. I have to say CoreLogic’s acquisition of Prospects Software was super smart. Add to that the timing of CoStar’s acquisition of Homesnap (and their failure to resign the BPP) along with a well executed sales strategy and you get these results. Big congrats to Charles, Kevin and the rest of the team.
