LISTINGBOOK ANNOUNCES SUPPORT FOR THE CALIFORNIA REAL ESTATE TECHNOLOGY SERVICES (CARETS)

Greensboro, N.C.—Listingbook, the nation’s premier real estate client servicing application, is leading the evolution of online real estate services with its support of one of the nation’s largest and most innovative MLS data share programs, California Real Estate Technology Services, Inc (CARETS).

With the implementation of the CARETS database on March 24, Listingbook is able to connect over 95,000 active home buyers and sellers with over 100,000 local REALTORS® throughout Southern California. Working with MLS partners in Southern California, Listingbook provides agents and their clients an easy way to search up-to-the-minute listing information, view comparable sales, research local market prices and collaborate online with their REALTOR® creating a highly effective and enjoyable real estate experience.

CARETS collects residential listings from its MLS members: The Combined Los Angeles/Westside MLS, CRISnet Regional MLS, MRMLS, and Southern California MLS - into one database containing over 2 million residential listings and over 4 million photos.

“Listingbook fosters an incredibly qualified real estate community and maximizes collaboration between REALTORS® and the consumers,” said James Barry, President of Listingbook. “We can now combine MLS data from different sources - or in this case – support one massive database of listings. We have been serving REALTORS® in Southern California since 2007 and with the CARETS implementation; we look to help REALTORS® market their properties from any MLS in Southern California to the substantial number of real buyers in the Listingbook community looking throughout Southern California”.
