Local Board Approves New Vendor Contract

Today our Board of Directors with the Kingman/Golden Valley Association of REALTORS approved the new MLS vendor contract. This is the first step taken to insure that our local REALTORS will have MLS service to aid in the sales of property. The current vendor contract expires in November of this year, and would not be extended.

This is great news for the local agents and brokers. The new vendors product is greatly enhanced with user friendly features to help streamline the time and effort for the job of selling property.

This also is the official first step towards a regional MLS with other neighboring Associations. The KGVAR and the Lake Havasu Association and the Bullhead City Association have already approved their choice of new vendor, which is the same vendor the Kingman group chose. Now that one vendor will service each Association, the groups can move closer to combining those resources to allow for more exposure of their clients listings throughout the western Arizona area.

While this action today was significant in terms of moving closer to a regional MLS, there is still a long way to go. I'll keep you updated.
