MORGANTOWN, W. Va.,
May 15, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- ListHub,
the leading distributor of U.S. property listings to US publisher
websites and provider of real estate performance metrics, today
announces a deal with Systems Engineering, Inc. (SEI) to make
ListHub available to SEI's 130 Navica MLS System customers
nationwide.
ListHub, also a premier distributor of US property listings to
international publisher websites, is operated by Move, Inc.
(NASDAQ: MOVE). The agreement with SEI positions ListHub to
potentially add up to 130 new MLSs to ListHub's current network of
465 MLSs, which includes 31 new service agreements with MLSs that
have been signed so far in 2014.
SEI's MLS customers will have the option to sign up for the
ListHub service for distributing MLS listing data to more than 60
national real estate websites, as well as provide ListHub's online
marketing reports to its broker and agent members. In
addition, SEI customers who utilize MLS public websites provided by
SEI will have the opportunity to seamlessly integrate the traffic
metrics from the MLS public site into the ListHub online marketing
reports.
"We are thrilled to offer our MLS customers ListHub's
comprehensive syndication toolset, and we feel confident knowing
that our customers' listing information will be distributed under
the most stringent data protections in the industry," said
Paula Payne, president of SEI.
"ListHub shares our commitment to listing data accuracy, and the
protection of brokers' valuable listing content."
SEI currently provides its own listing distribution service to
members, and has made the choice to align with ListHub for listing
distribution to increase the number of websites available to MLS
customers for syndication, and to increase value to customers
through ListHub's robust platform. ListHub provides brokers with
all of the tools they need to manage the complexities of
advertising listings online. SEI will phase out its current
listing syndication service over the next year.
The Ithaca Board of Realtors®, a customer of both ListHub and
SEI, was the first to add the traffic metrics from their SEI
provided consumer-facing website to the ListHub online marketing
reports.
"We are excited to have the ability to demonstrate the consumer
traffic on our public site to our association members," said
Norma Jayne, CEO of the Ithaca Board
of Realtors. "It allows us to see what consumers are looking
for and where they are looking. It's a wonderful service to
our brokers and agents, and gives them an easy way to share that
value with their seller clients."
"We are excited about our relationship with SEI," said
Luke Glass, General Manager of
ListHub. "We are honored to be selected as SEI's preferred
provider, and we look forward to working collaboratively with their
team to provide service to their network of MLS customers."
