Stellar MLS and MIAMI REALTORS® Team Up for Enhanced MLS Access Across Florida

Stellar MLS Partners with MIAMI REALTORS® for Greater Listing Access

In a groundbreaking development for the real estate industry, Stellar MLS, the premier multiple listing service (MLS) in Florida and Puerto Rico, has announced a reciprocal collaboration with the MIAMI Association of REALTORS®. This partnership is set to revolutionize how real estate professionals in Florida can access and share listings, marking a significant enhancement in the operational landscape of real estate services across the state.

Stellar MLS currently operates across a vast 30% of Florida's geographic expanse, covering 18 counties in addition to services in Puerto Rico. The recent agreement will facilitate enhanced access to multiple listings in key areas, including Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach Counties. This inclusion of South Florida, one of the country's most dynamic and rapidly growing regions, promises to connect real estate experts and open new avenues for client representation and market penetration.

Under this reciprocal MLS access deal, agents and brokers affiliated with Stellar MLS and MIAMI REALTORS® can now seamlessly search, view, and share listings from both systems. This eliminates the previous requirement for secondary memberships and promotes quicker connectivity between real estate professionals and their clients across a broader region. Starting September 30, users will enjoy mutual listing access, enriching the marketplace and providing deeper insights into real estate trends.

Merri Jo Cowen, the CEO of Stellar MLS, highlighted the significance of this collaboration. She stated, "This reciprocal MLS access agreement with MIAMI REALTORS® is a win for real estate professionals, the consumers they serve, and ultimately, the industry as a whole. It connects major markets across Florida and gives our collective customers a broader, more timely view of the marketplace. Together, we are advancing data accuracy, transparency, and access—three pillars that define us at Stellar MLS."

This partnership not only enhances listing visibility but also creates new opportunities for networking and referrals among real estate professionals. With both Stellar MLS and MIAMI REALTORS® utilizing the Matrix technology platform, agents will find themselves navigating a familiar, user-friendly interface that makes it easier to manage listings and share market data.

In the wake of this collaboration, real estate professionals can better assist clients looking to relocate, invest, or explore new opportunities. Teresa King Kinney, the CEO of MIAMI, echoed these sentiments, stating, "MIAMI and its data-sharing partners are gaining even more listing exposure for their clients thanks to these landmark partnerships in key markets. Through IntraMatrix, REALTORS® can network, build exciting new referral opportunities, and make more deals."

Stellar MLS stands tall as the leading MLS provider in Florida, and this collaboration with MIAMI REALTORS® further solidifies its position within the industry. Serving over 84,000 customers, Stellar MLS has established a reputation for offering top-tier support, products, and services essential for real estate agents and brokers. This wide-reaching alliance makes Stellar MLS an indispensable platform for professionals navigating the complexities of the Florida real estate market.

The MIAMI Association of REALTORS® holds the title of the largest local REALTOR® association in the United States, with a strong membership exceeding 60,000 professionals dedicated to selling, marketing, and managing real estate. Established in 1920, MIAMI has played a pivotal role in supporting its members and the communities within South Florida. This new partnership signifies a collective commitment to evolving the real estate industry, fostering partnerships, and embracing innovation for the benefit of REALTOR® associates and their clients.

As both organizations embark on this collaborative journey, the future of real estate in Florida looks promising, marked by increased connectivity, opportunities, and a supportive environment for professionals striving for success.
