This report is unique in that it provides a consumer counterpoint to industry perspectives about MLS consumer websites which can help the industry be more well-informed when making decisions about whether to launch or reactivate a MLS consumer website. Now with concrete study evidence available, this would be an excellent topic for discussion and of great interest to your subscribers.
