The real estate industry is challenging and agents today need all the support they can get to keep their businesses successful. That's why it's important to take advantage of tools and resources that can help improve the MLS experience for your subscribers. The WAV Group Customer Experience Index (CXI) Report is one such tool that provides comprehensive insights into customer satisfaction, and it's something that every MLS organization can benefit from.
As real estate professionals, your customers understand the value of building brand awareness and communicating their value proposition. As a multiple listing service, you should never take for granted that your customers know you and truly understand all you can offer them. One of the insights the WAV Group Customer Experience Index revealed is that sometimes REALTOR associations that also run an MLS could improve customer satisfaction by more clearly communicating the MLS’s brand and value proposition, separate from the association.
Real estate transactions have always been driven by data, and now more than ever, expanded location data has become critical for MLSs trying to improve the consumer home search. In this masterclass, moderated by Marilyn Wilson (Founding Partner, WAV Group), you will gain valuable insights from a panel of industry experts on how offering location insights has become so crucial to the MLS websites.
WAV Group is expanding its marketing capabilities with the launch of its full service marketing agency, led by Bondilyn Jolly.

WAV Group has fielded hundreds of surveys over the last two plus decades. As consultants, we have been able to, over the years, garner insights from previous surveys that help inform current clients. However, what the industry was missing was the ability to stack results side-by-side and understand true areas of strength and opportunity, not just in local markets, but for MLS organizations nationally. But data is only as good [...]

The Council of MLS has come so far in the past few years under the leadership of Denee Evans. Congrats to our MLS friends and colleagues who dedicate themselves to work hard to create more progressive action and cohesiveness in the MLS industry. I look forward to the leadership of Jim Yockel as Chair. Jim cares deeply about the MLS industry. His dedication to helping MLS learn how to continually improve the relevance of the service they provide to their brokerages is unparalleled. I am certain that Jim, along with Dionna, Nicole, John and Matt will continue to lead CMLS into a direction that will drive home the value of the MLS, even in the softer market we are entering.
What is the most important technology, outside the MLS listing database, that you offer to your customers? The answer is — it depends. What is important to your customers is having the right technology solution to solve the challenge they are facing right now, and that changes.
The Toronto Regional Real Estate Board (TRREB) signed Restb.ai as its partner for AI powered computer vision technology and data. We love to see MLSs pushing the envelope to continue to reduce friction in the listing set-up process, all the while helping their members deliver more robust online marketing to their prospects and clients.
