MLS (Multiple Listing Service) is the system real estate professionals use to share property listings. In Canada, CREA — the Canadian Real Estate Association — maintains the data standard that defines listing fields, from property type to heating to certifications.
Neighbourly connects to MLS/CREA listing feeds — resolving each listing to a standardized address so it can be correlated with boundaries, demographics and permits. Neighbourly builds and maintains the connection; it does not store the listing data or its history.
