First there was the individual Brokerage. If they were willing to cooperate, we had to arrange to pick up a house key at their office, and return it. Then we had the first Multiple Listing Services. For a long time, we needed to be members of both the San Jose Board of Realtors and our local Board...in my case, Sunnyvale...in order to have any flexibility. If a master key was lost, we had to re=key the system for security. Then the local boards began combining, and now our membership in SILVAR (the Silicon Valley Association of Realtors) gives us access to electronic key safes throughout the Bay Area.
It has long been the vision of California REALTORS® to have one database to input and search all California real property, regardless of property type, location, or status. Today marks an historic day on our shared journey to a statewide Multiple Listing Service (MLS).
CALMLS announced that four local REALTOR® associations -- the Fresno Association of REALTORS®, the Lake County Association of REALTORS®, the Madera County Association of REALTORS®, and the Merced County Association of REALTORS® -- have become charter providers of calREDD™, an acronym for California Real Estate Dynamic Data. The initial REALTOR® associations will begin delivering calREDD™ to their members early this summer. We're on our way!
