TUSCALOOSA, Ala. - June 16, 2020 - (Newswire.com)
MyOwnMLS, developer of web modules and mobile web applications for marketing real estate and other property listings, has partnered with SimplyRETS, the leading data platform for developers and real estate professionals to build apps and websites using real estate Multiple Listing Service (MLS) data.
The partnership will allow real estate professionals to quickly add property listings to their Squarespace websites using SimplyRETS as the local MLS IDX data provider and MyOwnMLS website extensions built specifically for the popular platform.
As a result, real estate agents, brokers, home builders, vacation rentals-by-owner, and property managers can now choose attractive and affordable Squarespace sites to take advantage of the powerful built-in marketing, administration, and search visibility features the platform has to offer.
“Prior to MyOwnMLS, there simply was no easy, fast, and affordable way for real estate agents to get their home listings and home search on a Squarespace site,” says Jason Polancich, CEO of VandalsSmile Digital Marketing (owner of MyOwnMLS).”I can’t tell you how many frustrated agents and brokers we’ve heard from over the years who wanted a great-looking Squarespace site but had no way to enable home search and display. Now, we can plug MyOwnMLS right into their site on top of SimplyRETS’ perfectly formatted and robust IDX data and the job is done.”
Real estate professionals can now easily put together great websites quickly, complete with built-in home search and listing details display pages using MyOwnMLS and SimplyRETS much more affordably than using a local web design firm.
MyOwnMLS provides the Squarespace website modules while SimplyRETS provides the home listing data from the local MLS office. The agent or brokerage then has access to and complete control over their own website via the easy-to-use Squarespace administration dashboard.
In some cases, the combination saves agents and brokers as much as $5,000 dollars or more per site per year over traditional local web hosting and design companies.
“Our primary goal at SimplyRETS is simple: make it easy and accessible to build robust, functional, and useful websites and applications with MLS listing data,” says Cody Reichert of SimplyRETS. “For too long, real estate technology has been difficult and expensive to integrate. MyOwnMLS is exactly the type of tool we had in mind to change this reality and empowers agents and brokers with the power of new technologies to grow their business.”
MyOwnMLS can be purchased and up and running quickly on either an existing Squarespace website or one that’s built from scratch by MyOwnMLS. Plans start at $20 per month.
SimplyRETS MLS data plans start at only $49 per month and are an easy way to integrate your MLS data with a Squarespace site via MyOwnMLS, including “Active,” “Pending,” and “Active Under Contract” listings. More plans and add-ons are available for accessing open houses, market analytics, and more.
“I often have multiple websites going at once to best promote and market my brokerage and listings,” says Rebekah Polancich, Broker-in-Charge at RealBama Real Estate.”With MyOwnMLS and SimplyRETS, I can put up a new Squarespace website that looks great - and gets found on the web - in a matter of an hour or two. It’s very fast and cost-effective.”
