Sandy-based real estate technology company UtahRealEstate.com has announced the successful launch of a new company. The new business, reDataExport LLC, provides a highly configurable data distribution software tool for use by real estate professionals to provide data for research, statistics and analytics to government agencies, universities, economists and research companies without having to give full access to their MLS systems.
And NorthstarMLS, a leading MLS based in Minnetonka, Minnesota, has signed an agreement to be the company’s first customer. NorthstarMLS serves more than 21,000 real estate professionals throughout Minnesota and its surrounding areas.
“We are excited to begin using this powerful new tool to better serve public agencies, universities and research groups in Minnesota,” said Tim Dain, CEO of NorthstarMLS. “Rather than relying on developers and staff to create complex queries to provide statistics, we can now easily configure the data parameters and allow licensees to retrieve data in bulk format quickly and efficiently.”
“It’s an honor to have one of the largest and most prestigious MLSs in the Midwest become a customer of reDataExport,” said Brad Bjelke, CEO of reDataExport and UtahRealEstate.com. “The MLS is the best source of accurate real estate data throughout the country, and there has always been difficulty in distributing data to those in public agencies and universities who rely on stats for housing analysis.”
