RETS

MRED welcomes you to our RETS information section.

What is RETS?

The Real Estate Transaction Standard is a common language spoken by systems that handle real estate information, such as multiple listing services. A common language enables computers like the one on your desk to receive information from many different real estate systems or MLSs without being specially "trained" to understand the information from each.

MRED IS running a RETS 1.7 , 1.5, compliant server, created by Dynaconnections, and is developed under a BSD-style license at the Center for REALTOR(R) Technology.
