Welcome to FairMLS

Brokers are proud of their invention of the "MLS" concept, a business-to-business platform that helps create an efficient marketplace that is the envy of the world and provides the best outcomes for the consumer public. MLSs that focus on prioritizing brokerage success -- and not on growing the scope of the MLS itself -- fulfill the original vision and create strong supporters from the real estate community. Brokerage leaders currently are working on a list to help guide MLSs as they seek to stick to the founding principles, and that list will be posted here when complete.

Until now, MLSs can reference a "friction points" list from 2013 when doing periodic self-evaluations, when doing strategic planning and even when considering launching a new product or service
