Additional benefits for local agents and their clients through world-wide visibility for real estate listings

 SUNNYVALE, Calif. (March 14, 2011) -- MLSListings, Inc. (MLSListings) today announced the launch of a new global marketing and networking service connecting real estate professionals in 100+ countries across five continents through its PERKS program.

MLSListings has partnered with Proxio, creators of the industry’s first and largest global network for real estate professionals, to give MLSListings’ agents and brokers an opportunity to showcase, translate and market listings in 19 languages for local multicultural buyers, and to give them additional tools to easily find, connect and market to agents from other regions by interest, specialty, language or location.

"California’s real estate market is very specialized and home to people from many cultures around the world," said Jim Harrison, president and CEO of MLSListings. "Connecting agents by common specialty helps facilitate transactions and enhances client service. No other MLS in Northern California is offering this service for agents and brokers, and we’re very excited to make it available through our partnership with Proxio."

Using Proxio, MLSListings subscribers can easily set up a professional profile in just minutes to initiate high-quality referral networks across borders and across languages, and to increase global marketing exposure for their listings, which benefits both buyers and sellers of California real estate.
