Great and timely article about the value of the MLS, featuring our very own Russ Bergeron! It speaks mostly to syndication and “pocket listings” but is very relevant to the recent discussions regarding the role of MLS providers. I think this quote from Russ is very succinct…
“‘While many agents appreciate the rules of the MLS, many do not necessarily believe any group should be legislating how a broker serves a client. And Bergeron agrees. “MRED has no interest in controlling the business model of any broker. Our job is to ensure that there is compliance with our rules,’ he says.”
Nicely done Russ !!
