Listing data integration
Why integrate?
Adding your MLS access credentials to our service offers you the following benefits:
- Finding comparables when you create a Listing Presentation or CMA becomes automatic. You will no longer have to manually enter details like the number of beds or baths
- It allows us to automatically update your listing materials. When details change in your MLS, for example when a price changes or a listing is sold, we'll make the updates and send you a notification.
- Creating materials becomes even faster and the quality goes up. As we will be able to automatically populate data for you based on past and present listings and sales, and make we will be able to make smarter suggestions regarding text edits and image selection, resulting in a higher quality result.
How do I integrate?
Depending on your local real estate board, the process differs slightly. Please send us an email at hello@betterlistings.co and include the following information:
- Your name
- Your phone number
- The name of your local real estate board
- Whether you have access to a single MLS or multiple MLSs (if so please list them)
Does this cost anything?
No, it is completely free. Sharing this ID is free for all MLS boards (that we're aware of!) and this is a free service we include with any subscription. It actually makes our life a lot easier as it lets us access the data we need to create your materials without relying on you to manually enter it or us using potentially out of date data.
How long does it take to setup?
Generally this takes no more than a week to complete. After you send us an email, we'll send you the setup instructions for your region. Nexct, you or (your broker) will need to lodge a request with your board, these are generally approved in a few days. The setup process from our end only takes a matter of minutes once the keys have been shared with us.
