RentSpree Partners with Hive MLS to Advance Rental Services
On July 9, 2025, RentSpree, recognized as a leading rental software provider in the United States, announced a collaborative endeavor with Hive MLS, marking a significant advancement within the specialty of rental listings. Hive MLS, a rapidly growing multiple listing service in the Southeast, is set to integrate RentSpree’s rental application and tenant screening tools directly into its platform, offering these services free of charge to its subscribers across North Carolina and Georgia.
This partnership presents an exciting opportunity for agents operating in the Southeast. Hive MLS manages approximately 15,000 rental listings each year across more than 18 MLSs. The integration of RentSpree's tech solutions aims to streamline the workflow for agents, diminishing the prevalent back-and-forth communications that often slow down the rental process. This efficiency is especially vital in the current high-volume rental market, where timely responses can significantly impact both agent productivity and client satisfaction.
Daniel Jones, CEO of Hive MLS, expressed his enthusiasm for the partnership, emphasizing Hive MLS's commitment to equipping its members with essential tools to thrive in an evolving market. He stated, "At Hive MLS, we're focused on giving our members the tools they need to succeed, not just today but as the market evolves. RentSpree's integration helps our members move faster, work smarter, and better serve their clients in the growing rental space.”
The venture with Hive MLS is a vital stride for RentSpree, augmenting its influence across the Southeastern U.S. The company has already forged strong relationships with recognized organizations such as Georgia REALTORS®, First MLS, North Carolina REALTORS®, and RESides MLS, establishing a robust footprint in this region.
Several areas in the Southeast U.S. have been experiencing job growth and an influx of population, which has inadvertently led to heightened demand for housing. As individuals migrate from states with high living costs, cities like Atlanta, Charlotte, and Raleigh, along with emerging markets such as Greenville and Charleston, are witnessing increased rental housing demand. This trend underscores the requirement for efficient and scalable tools to assist agents and brokers in meeting their clients' needs.
Michael Lucarelli, CEO and Co-Founder of RentSpree, articulated the firm's resolve to empower real estate professionals with accessible rental technology, stating, "Our collaboration with Hive MLS reflects RentSpree's commitment to empowering real estate professionals with modern, accessible rental technology. Together, we're making it easier for agents to serve a growing segment of the market, especially in high-demand areas like the Carolinas and Georgia."
