The GREPA MLS (REDGhana.com) will serve as a data portal which will accumulate, correlate and disseminate information to enable real estate brokers, government institutions, researchers, investors, valuation companies and students to follow best practices in real estate transactions. Additional benefits of REDGhana.com include:
The MLS is a tool to help listing brokers find cooperative brokers working with buyers to help sell their clients’ homes.
Provides a system of cooperation, allowing for a more consolidated property information database and doing away with the currently existing fragmented system in the industry.
Transparency: All member agents have access to detailed information for a property including who has representative rights over it which allows for hassle-free payments.
Data Syndication: Allows properties entered into the MLS to be automatically publishes to various online listing websites for the general public.
IDX – (Internet Data Exchange) – will enable real estate professionals to display the most comprehensive and up-to-date property listing data from the MLS on their own real estate websites. Agents will be able to easily upload listings from the database onto their website.
Buyers and sellers can work with the professional of their choice, confident that they have access to an authentic largest pool of properties for sale in the marketplace.
Through the MLS, Agents are guaranteed their compensation.
