4. NAR Public Record Initiative: Fiction or Reality? (Panel Discussion)
Recently, the National Association of Realtors® (NAR) has announced an initiative that one day may create a national Multiple Listing Service (MLS) based on public record data. Last November, the NAR Board of Directors approved proceeding with what’s being called a gateway platform, the first step in a process for amassing information on all parcels in the United States—residential, commercial, undeveloped, rental—into a central database accessible to REALTORS® (not consumers). The gateway would include historical transaction information, assessments, and other information for each parcel. Is it realistic to think this can happen? Find out from a panel of experts the progress NAR has made to date, what the future may hold, and how it this NAR initiative may impact your business.
