The meaningful expressions of support with the loss of our lion, Andy Rapattoni, have been greatly appreciated by my family and all of us at Rapattoni Corporation. We are very pleased to announce that our corporate website has been updated with a new section providing information on the Rapattoni Drama Scholarship Fund that so very many have contributed to. Click here to view the new pages that went live today, Thursday the 4th of June 2015, at: http://www.rapattoni.com/scholarship/index.html.
The Rapattoni Drama Scholarship is awarded annually for Outstanding Performance in the Chaffey High School Drama department in Ontario, California, where Andy and I attended high school back in the ’50s. The donations in Andy’s memory have extended this story and the results will be many scholarships for years to come. If you’d like to learn more, the above link provides additional information on the scholarship and its recipients, as well as the story of how it came about.
Thank you again from my family, team Rapattoni, and especially from me.

Rapattoni & MetroList Services first to implement RESO Data Dictionary 1.3
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.
