ListHub enables faster, fresher listing updates
Twenty one ListHub publisher websites have adopted new enhancements that allow listing data to refresh every 1 to 2 hours MORGANTOWN, W.Va., March 18, 2019 -- ListHub, the nation's leading provider of listing syndication services and performance marketing metrics, today announced a new enhancement to its listing syndication service to allow for faster, fresher listing updates to all publishers in the ListHub network. Currently 21 publishers are participating in the program with more to be added in the coming months. More than 65,000 brokerages nationwide currently leverage ListHub's listing syndication service. For many home buyers, the most challenging part of their search is finding the right home. According to the realtor.com® 2019 National Housing Forecast, national inventory increases will remain low at less than 7 percent. In this highly competitive market, it's critical for buyers to have access to the most updated listing data. To address this need, ListHub recently piloted a new program to give select publisher websites the option to receive incremental feed updates. By delivering only the listing data that has changed from the MLS since the last update, instead of the full feed, ListHub makes it easier for publishers to manage and process the data quickly and refresh their websites more frequently. The program is now available to all ListHub publishers. "In today's digital, on-demand world, ListHub plays a vital role in the real estate industry," said Celeste Starchild, SVP with Move, Inc., which operates ListHub. "We're focused on providing the most effective and efficient service to help our broker customers market their clients' homes to a wide audience, accurately and responsibly." For brokers and listing agents, this new program will allow participating publishers to pick up their new or updated listing content every 1 to 2 hours so the listing is frequently refreshed on those publishers the broker has selected for advertising through ListHub. Currently the following publishers are participating and processing the incremental feeds: AdWerx Back At You Media Close2Homes.com HAR.com HomeFinder.com Homes.com HomeWinks Hommati IdealEstate Imprev Keyboom Land Network LuxuryRealEstate.com Mrktstreet Nest.me Nestigator Nobbas REA Global Property Network RealtyExecutives.com SearchALLProperties by L2L TurnKey More publisher partners will be added in the coming months. Visit our website to see the most current list of publishers receiving incremental feed updates.

Connecticut Multiple Listing Service Terminates ListHub Syndication
Wallingford, CT – A few short weeks ago the newly formed Zillow Group stood to lose its prime source of real estate data when ListHub terminated its long-standing agreements to provide listings from Multiple Listing Services to Zillow and Trulia. Despite this latest salvo in what is sure to be a long fight for dominance between Zillow Group and News Corp (owner of Move), the Connecticut Multiple Listing Service (CTMLS) brokers and agents have been able to remain above the fray. By hammering out direct agreements with both Trulia and Zillow all the way back in 2011 and 2012, respectively, the Connecticut MLS ensured its brokers and agents the uninterrupted ability to advertise listings on Zillow and Trulia, as well as through separate agreements with Homes.com, Homefinder.com, and Realtor.com. "When CTMLS identified that these five websites account for more than 90% of all real estate traffic on the Internet, it was important to move immediately to ensure our brokers' ability to syndicate their listings, while also protecting their data from misuse," said Cameron Paine, CEO of the CTMLS. "We addressed the needs of our brokers by guaranteeing access to the five most dominant real estate websites on the Internet. We also guaranteed data protections with strict contractual terms of use preventing re-syndication, sale, and re-use, among others. For our brokers, it was a matter of professionalism that their listings be as accurate as possible, whatever website they may be found on." Connecticut MLS brokers now have the ability to choose which real estate portals to advertise their listings on directly through the MLS. With broker preference as a default selection, agents can choose from the five real estate portals above directly in the listing input screen of the MLS. "It is critical today that MLSs provide their Brokers with this level of transparency," said Phil Carloni, President of CTMLS. "What CTMLS has created with our partners at Core Logic is a system that gives our brokers the ability to choose which listings to syndicate without the need for a separate platform. This streamlines our process greatly and puts the control of advertising real estate on the Internet back where it belongs - in the hands of brokers." Now that the broker's ability to syndicate will be handled directly within the MLS, the Connecticut Multiple Listing Service will terminate its syndication agreement with Move-owned ListHub effective July 31, 2015. About CT MLS: The Connecticut Multiple Listing Service (CTMLS) is among the top twenty largest MLSs in the country and is recognized as an industry leader. Based in Wallingford, CT, the CTMLS creates opportunities for brokers in all parts of the state to cooperate with each other in the buying, selling and renting of homes, condos, multifamily property, land and commercial properties. CTMLS empowers its clients with knowledge, tools and services that enable them to excel in their profession. The CTMLS listings database has over 25,000 listings and facilitates over $7 billion in annual Connecticut real estate transactions.

"We're also pleased to announce that our broker and MLS customers will now be able to bring their listings to a new audience of home buyers and sellers on LeadingRE.com. Agreements with these networks signify a mutual long-term commitment to manage listings data and advertising exposure through a single industry platform." ListHub's REN empowers franchise publishers and broker networks like Leading Real Estate Companies of the World to index and display accurate, broker-authorized listings on their national brand websites and mobile apps, providing a world-class real estate search experience for home buyers and sellers. Multiple listing services (MLSs) and brokers who have opted in to display listings on this network are able to increase the exposure for their listings on brand name real estate websites and mobile apps while maintaining tight control of where their listings are published.

The REN rules are available for review here. The rules were developed by ListHub in collaboration with MLS and franchise leadership in 2012.

ListHub pioneered real estate listing syndication to help serve the real estate industry's expansion to online marketing, and today it serves nearly 600 MLSs and over 50,000 brokers across the country in delivering listing information to more than 150 publisher and vendor websites and mobile apps.

Greater Alabama MLS Chooses ListTrac for Seller Reports
SAN DIEGO, CA – The Greater Alabama MLS and Birmingham Association of REALTORS® have entered into an agreement to provide ListTrac™ as a member benefit to their broker and agent subscribers. With this new service, the Greater Alabama MLS will be monitoring and measuring engagement every place a listing is viewed by a REALTOR® or a consumer. Greater Alabama is joining a handful of other leading MLS in America who are pioneering this effort to improve the management of listing data online. "As online advertising evolved, our industry became very good at supporting agents and brokers with marketing listings in the MLS and though Internet Data Exchange (IDX). We have also made great strides at supporting the marketing of listings on third party portals. Until now, what we have not been able to provide is the ability for a member to know the effectiveness of these marketing efforts, to be able to show their seller where their property is being viewed" says James Harwell, President of Greater Alabama MLS. The ListTrac services works like a service akin to Google Analytics. A snippet of monitoring code is placed on websites that display MLS listing content. The MLS system itself also includes the snippet of monitoring code. The monitoring code sends information back to the ListTrac server where it is stored and accessed by the MLS and its members. The MLS, each member agent, and each participating broker is provided with a dashboard to view where listings are being viewed and where they are getting the most online exposure. REALTORS® may also invite their seller to have their own dashboard which shows how many impressions their property is getting online and where the impressions are coming from. There are three primary channels where listings are viewed online. The MLS, IDX powered agent and broker consumer websites, and portals. ListTrac is the first commercial service to measure listing engagement across all three. "We have been a solutions provider in the real estate space for 12 years," says Trent Gardner, co-founder of ListTrac. "We built ListTrac to measure engagement across the MLS, IDX sites, and the national portals – it occurred to us that every MLS service provider would want to monitor and report these online metrics to their members. The holistic reports offered by ListTrac provide the science for brokers and agents to make informed decisions about where their listing campaigns are being most effective - no one else provides this comprehensive view today." With ListTrac, agents and brokers will no longer be guessing about where to market listings effectively online. They will be able to view engagement in real-time and transparently share that information with the seller. About ListTrac ListTrac is a complimentary monitoring and reporting platform for real estate brokers, REALTORS® and sellers to measure user engagement data related to their listing content. ListTrac provides a holistic view of where and how listing content is being interacted with across the Internet. Located in San Diego, California, ListTrac's team has been exploring the real estate domain for novel tools for over 12 years. About Greater Alabama MLS The Greater Alabama MLS has approximately 3,200 members and providing service for 11 counties.

ListHub aligns with SouFun to Advertise U.S. Listings on Top Chinese Real Estate Website
  MORGANTOWN, W. Va. and BEIJING, Feb. 27, 2014 -- ListHub, the leading distributor of property listings in the U.S. and international publisher websites and foremost provider of performance metrics in real estate operated by Move, Inc., announced an expansion of their agreement with EdenHome to add SouFun Holdings Limited, the leading real estate portal in China, to the ListHub Global network, providing U.S. listings to Chinese buyers via the ListHub Global platform. The new collaboration gives agents and brokers the ability to market their listings to international buyers in China, and provides a critical link to one of the most significant sectors of the foreign investment market. SouFun, China's fastest growing real estate listing portal, maintains a database containing real estate related content for more than 336 cities in China as well as close to 100 offices focusing on local markets. With this agreement, SouFun is bringing the U.S. housing market to Chinese buyers through internet portals highly focused on user experience. EdenHome operates the international real estate search for dozens of websites around the world, now including SouFun. EdenHome's network includes 25 portals in 21 countries throughout Europe, Asia, Africa, and North and South America. The EdenHome Network is available to US brokers and agents through ListHub's Global Platform. "ListHub's goal is not only to help agents and brokers market listings to prospective homebuyers in the U.S., but also worldwide, reaching foreign buyers who are looking to make an investment," said Luke Glass, general manager of ListHub. "The ListHub Global platform provides rigorous listing protections for distributed listings regardless of geographic borders, and our integration with SouFun allows Chinese buyers to discover available homes abroad within their familiar real estate search portal." "The new agreement expands SouFun's ability to provide the most comprehensive service to Chinese agents and their clients interested in US homeownership," said Liu Jian, chief operating officer of SouFun. "It enables the Chinese buyer interested in expanding home investment opportunities outside the country to compete effectively in the U.S. marketplace." The National Association of REALTORS® (NAR) 2013 Profile of International Home Buying Activity reports that China represents the second largest group of foreign home buyers, after Canada, comprising 12 percent of foreign purchases of U.S. real estate in 2012. It also has been one of the fastest-rising international investment markets, increasing 140 percent since 2007. Many purchases were made possible through the U.S. government's EB-5 Immigrant Investor program, which has been largely dominated by buyers from China – nearly 80% of all EB-5 visas went to Chinese nationals in 2012, according to the U.S Department of State. The rise in interest in U.S. properties from Chinese buyers in recent years has been fueled in part by the opportunity to own land outright in the U.S. In addition, recent restrictions on multiple-property ownership in China designed to help curb housing prices there have broadened the appeal of overseas investment. The technical integration relating to the agreement is underway, with active listing content slated to launch in February, 2014. About SouFun SouFun operates the leading real estate Internet portal in China as measured by the number of page views and visitors to its websites. Through our websites, we provide marketing, e-commerce, listing and other value-added services for China's fast-growing real estate and home furnishing and improvement sectors. Our user-friendly websites support active online communities and networks of users seeking information on, and other value-added services for, the real estate and home-related sectors in China.

Syndication Grenade? New Syndication Portal?
Here’s the real deal on Listings 360°insight Advisor. With all of the discussion around syndication and the listing distribution process…and some questions around what we are doing, I wanted to clearly articulate the purpose (and value) of the 360°insight Advisor platform recently licensed by MRED, MRIS and CTMLS. 360°insight Advisor helps MLSs, Brokers and Agents understand, explain and make effective, fact-based business decisions about online listing distribution/syndication by revealing consumer activity, demand and performance information from virtually all websites where listings appear. The online visibility platform tracks listing and performance activity comprehensively: within the MLS system, on the MLS consumer site (as applicable), the Broker website, Agent IDX sites and Publisher websites and presents the data via crisp visuals/infographics within secure, intuitive, on-demand portals for MLSs, Brokers, Agents and even consumers (at Agent discretion). So, as related to syndication and online marketing decisions/investments, 360°insight Advisor provides an unprecedented view of the valuable decision making information enabling a performance based, selective syndication strategy; this a big first step from where our industry stands right now. We’ve been asked by some if we created 360°insight Advisor as a syndication grenade OR if it is a syndication platform; the answer to both is no. We created a decision making product; incredibly valuable in the creation, support and management of a well-executed online listing distribution strategy. Equally as powerful, 360°insight Advisor delivers unprecedented insight into what clients are doing on line… helping Brokers make the most of their online listing exposure while helping Agents move their business forward, faster. The value proposition of 360°insight Advisor is truly full circle, for all stakeholders: For MLSs: Fortifies the position of the MLS as data steward by delivering tangible value…directly from the MLS to Broker and Agent Represents the value that the MLS system and/or the MLS consumer site deliver to the overall online marketing strategy as relation to the whole and independently Provides the MLS with deep insight into how data is being used online across all websites where listings appear Empowers the MLS to make effective, selective based syndication decisions with their Broker members Enables deeper, more thoughtful discussion between the MLS and Broker members For Brokers: Empowers Broker/puts Broker back in control of: selective, performance based syndication decisions online marketing strategies and investments proactive future planning Reveals and promotes the power of the Broker’s online power – independently AND market-wide Helps the Broker understand and articulate online consumer habits, identify emerging trends Enables greater engagement with Agents and consumers within the market Accelerate business results by enabling more effective and precise management of the online marketing plan  – an emphasis on investments and activities that generate ROI For Agents: Empowers the Agent to substantiate pricing and marketing recommendations with sellers armed with social proof – what consumers are really doing online Empowers the agent to understand how like listings perform on line, guiding them to modify and enhance their own online marketing strategies – independently and with consumers Enables valuable and ongoing  dialogue with the client Enhances the Agent’s scope and depth of knowledge, fostering greater credibility and trust with clients Provides informational ammunition to market and price more precisely – accelerating time to close. For Syndicators, Publishers and IDX vendors: Provides a platform for Publishers to demonstrate performance/value clearly and objectively on a level field (with the same performance criteria  being measured/reported across all sites) Cooperation is shown through working together to deliver transparency with MLSs and Brokers… in a previously tenuous environment Cooperation empowers knowledge that leads to a more sustainable model - MLSs, Brokers and Agents to measure performance, value and make sound business decisions - Enables Agents to utilize the information about their listings online in marketing strategy and in the sales process Transparency fosters openness by eliminating suspicion of the unknown Openness and knowledge creates candor and trust – opportunities can emerge organically, mutual value can be explored and perhaps group of players previously in turmoil can co-exist and even profit successfully together.

This is a question-and-answer forum that brings home buyers, sellers, owners, rent, landlords, lenders, and other real estate professionals together in a very helpful way. Answering questions helps build your online reputation of being knowledgeable about a particular region or subject matter. You can also subscribe to RSS feeds or get email alerts for any topic and specify your geographic location. 4. Zestimate Accuracy Chart. How many clients have said, “...But Zillow says…?” Equip yourself with the Zestimate Accuracy Chart so you can describe to your clients — using data — how accurate the Zestimate® home valuation is in your specific county. 5. Comment publicly on a Zestimate. As the homeowner or the listing agent, you can leave public comments on a listing on Zillow when the Zestimate is too high, too low, or just right on a particular home. It is yet another marketing opportunity to publicly demonstrate your expertise and explain how the Zestimate relates to the home’s listing price. 6. Local market data: Zillow has data on more than 100 million homes in the U.S. We aggregate all this data and package it up under the Local Info tab. Here you can easily create powerful trend graphs and use the import feature to place this information on your site or blog. Remember — content is king! 7. Zillow Widgets. Want free, relevant, interesting and dynamic real estate data for your website or blog — for free? Then look no further than the Zillow Widget page (see screenshot). We feature many great widgets, such as Most Expensive Local Homes, Local Mortgage Rates, Recently Sold, Agent Review Widgets and more! Zillow iPhone App 8. Zillow Mobile Apps. Download one of our free, popular iPhone, iPad, Android, Blackberry or Windows Mobile applications. They are all GPS-enabled, meaning that as you are out driving around with clients, you can easily see the estimated values of homes around you. 9. Zillow Profile. Yes, back to this one. Now that you’ve created the account, make sure to fully deck out your profile.
