NAR Update – Day 2

November 15, 2007

The CRT lunch was great. Chris McKeaver at CRT treated us right with good food and good people, which lead to great conversations. Thanks to the entire CRT crew for putting this event on. Hopefully it will become a tradition.

Mark Lesswing – CTO of NAR – filled us in on a new MLS rule that passed unanimously at the conference requiring all MLS’s to provide an up to date, compliant RETS server. Mark lobbied for this to ensure not just the spread of RETS servers, but to accelerate their usage. This is a great rule that should have a positive affect on real estate standards.

Mark also introduced Lennox Scott as the new technology liasion for the NAR President. I spoke with Lennox for about ten minutes about his plans, which center around utilizing technology to accomplish “real time real estate”.
