Welcome!
I think this is a turn in the right direction. However, we still need to keep our eye on this and see that we are truly protecting listing data and not the interest of the politicians involved. Now let’s go develop “killer applications” for Realtors to help these eager consumers.
If all the politically driven and greedy blue hairs would retire and let us get to a national MLS we might be able to turn the MLS into a information powerhouse. A powerhouse that helps the agent in the field do business and the consumer research accurate information and values about the biggest investment they will make. There is so much opportunity here to develop a killer site with killer apps for all users at every level. C'mon who in this country doesn’t know what the MLS is…
Great artical
