Houston Realtors Await MLXchange Proposal

HOUSTON-Interealty.com may have jumped the gun by claiming the Houston Association of Realtors has selected its MLXchange for a pilot program. A HAR executive says the nation's largest MLS has yet to receive a proposal.

HOUSTON-The Houston Association of Realtors may eventually test Interealty’s new MLXchange transaction management system, but claims that a tryout has been scheduled are premature, according to Sean Dauphine.

An Interealty press release has claimed that HAR had selected MLXchange for a pilot program. “We haven’t even received a proposal from Interealty,” Dauphine told GlobeSt.com. “After we receive it, it must be appraised by our MLS task force, and if it passes that, it must be approved by the board. It’s a one- to three-month process.”HAR members already have access to the iProperty.com “Chorus” system. “It’s the only one that has met our criteria and received board approval,” emphasizes Dauphine. “But, we are expecting that proposal from Interealty. We may wind up with three or four systems for our members to choose from.”

Interealty did use a HAR database of 25,000 active home listings in demonstrating MLXchange at the San Francisco meeting of the National Association of Realtors last weekend. Houston realtors may be the first organization in the nation to try out the new flagship product, but that remains to be seen, Dauphine says.
