RPR Data Share: Now More Access to Market Data, Research, and Reporting Mechanisms!

The Contra Costa Association of REALTORS® and CRMLS are teaming up to share data through RPR® (Realtors Property Resource®), a member benefit of the National Association of REALTORS®.

Effective immediately, CCAR MLS subscribers will have access to active, pending, withdrawn, expired, and closed listings from all five organizations, including: BARIES, MetroList, MLSListings, Paragon, and SFAR!

The new RPR data share equips subscribers with broader access to market data, research and reporting mechanisms that strengthens their ability to meet and exceed consumer expectations. Note that the new data share display does not include confidential information, such as compensation.

RPR is a member benefit of the National Association of REALTORS®. Access to the data platform is included in your NAR dues, so we hope you will take advantage of all RPR has to offer.
