Staten Island MLS Licenses Checkmate Listing Violation Detection Software from VestaPlus
With the removal of compensation from the MLS, data quality is becoming an even more important benefit of MLSs. It's not enough to just let your MLS customers self report on issues. MLSs need to consistently curate more comprehensive, accurate and timely real estate data insights to reinforce their core value proposition.
Progressive MLSs like Staten Island have recognized the need to deliver the highest quality data they can to ensure their MLS subscribers can serve consumers with the transparency and insights they deserve. Staten Island chose Checkmate™ Listing Violation Detection software built with today's technology to give them the ability to work with their MLS customers to respectfully address compliance issues and strengthen the marketing potential of MLS data.
Staten Island chose Checkmate™ Listing Violation Detection software because it was built by an MLS organization that serves some of the most discerning subscribers and luxury customers in Malibu and Beverly Hills, California.
As you're building your MLS budgets for 2025, be sure to dedicate resources to data quality software and be sure data comprehensiveness, intelligence and transparency is a priority.
