It's no surprise that the MLS industry's transition away from the RETS protocol in is fully underway​.

Adoption of a RESO-certified Web API has now exceeded over 40% of US MLSs (per RESO) and will, likely, be a mission-critical requirement in the years ahead.​

​

• Normalized field names to RESO standards

• Faster/easier integration to vendors

• A REST API is universal.  Will not require a learning curve for IT staff unfamiliar with RETS.

• RETS is becoming antiquated, support for these systems is becoming limited.

• Faster, more granular filtering capabilities and feature layers like geo-spatial search, webhooks, statistics, clustering, etc.

• Better data security for MLSs

• Lower hosting cost

​

Simply put:  you want more freedom and flexibility

If this is important to your MLS, it might benefit you to consider a RESO Web API that is independent of your current MLS system provider.
