MLS of Long Island Selects Local Matters as Partner

Local Matters is proud to announce a new real estate client, Multiple Listing Service of Long Island (MLSLI). MLSLI and Local Matters will partner over the coming months to build a robust consumer-facing real estate search site that serves home buyers on Long Island and meets the marketing needs of local agents.

“Local Matters’ real estate platform clearly embraces the latest trends in real estate and enables us to grow with the market. We are confident that the Local Matters’ feature-rich technology and team of experts puts us in the best position to leap our consumer-facing portal forward,” said Jim Speer, VP of Operations at MLS of Long Island.

The site will leverage Local Matters’ online real estate technology, Destination Search Real Estate. The turnkey local search platform enables MLSes and agents to reach home buyers across channels, such as social and mobile. By emphasizing the needs of buyers through innovative features, Destination Search Real Estate drives incremental leads for agents. Additionally, Local Matters’ software platform is architected in a way that maximizes flexibility—allowing MLSLI to modify their site with new features or plug-ins instantly.

“Most importantly, Local Matters’ platform gives our development team an almost unlimited ability to extend the platform to meet our specific needs ‘on-the-fly’. Local Matters was the only solution that provided this level of control—and we immediately realized its power, which allows us to more quickly respond to our agents and the market,” said Mr. Speer.

We look forward to a long and successful relationship with the MLS of Long Island team! Watch for more details on our partnership in the coming weeks.
