California Regional MLS Signs Groundbreaking Direct Data Share Agreement with Sandicor MLS

SAN DIMAS, Calif., Jan. 13, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- California Regional MLS (CRMLS), the nation's largest and most recognized MLS servicing nearly 80,000 real estate professionals, has signed a data share agreement with Sandicor MLS providing an additional 19,500 subscribers access to their MLS data.

This agreement will come as a huge financial relief to the current 2,200 agents that pay for joint membership in CRMLS and Sandicor.

Sandicor and CRMLS will share listing information directly with each other and will import each other's listing data into each respective MLS system allowing access to all data in both marketplaces no matter what MLS the member resides in. Sandicor will join VCRDS, CDAR, CLAW, CRISNet, iTech MLS and Palm Springs Association of REALTORS® in the new direct data share initiative.

"CRMLS continues to be proactive in unshackling data and breaking down artificial barriers to deliver data seamlessly throughout the state of California via our own technology in a cost effective manner. The addition of Sandicor's data will definitely strengthen this initiative and bring us closer to completing the aggregation of listings in California, allowing real estate professionals to advance their business," said Art Carter, CEO of CRMLS.

"The decision to enter into a data share agreement with CRMLS makes perfect sense in order to best service our existing members. Greater listing exposure will provide added business success to our membership and provide a complete and accurate view of the listings across both market areas," said Ray Ewing, President and CEO of Sandicor.
