MetroList, Calaveras County Association of Realtors partner

Northern California’s largest MLS MetroList is partnering with Calaveras County Association of Realtors (CCAR) to expand its footprint and provide more tools and technology to CCAR members. 

The two announced their partnership on Tuesday. Through the partnership, CCAR members now have access to MetroList’s suite of MLS tools, its real estate data, streamlined workflows and real estate training, education and customer support. 

“This partnership with MetroList is a significant win for our members and the communities they serve,” Jesse Gibbs, the past president of CCAR, said in a statement. “After careful thought and consideration, our leadership chose to align with a larger, regional MLS network to help secure the future of our association and its members. By joining MetroList, CCAR members gain greater listing exposure, advanced tools and technology, and the ability to better meet the needs of real estate buyers and sellers.”

MetroList said the partnership reflects its commitment to supporting local Realtor associations, while also building a more unified real estate marketplace. 

“We are pleased to welcome the CCAR and its members to MetroList,” Dave Howe, the president and CEO of MetroList, said in a statement. “By bringing more associations together on a single MLS platform, we are creating a regional MLS that enables real estate professionals to better serve their clients and supports consumers who are increasingly searching for properties across county and regional boundaries.”

Howe added that it is collaborations like this that enable MetroList to enhance the services it provides to subscribers. 

Several MLSs across the country have entered into partnerships or data share agreements this fall, with Florida’s Stellar MLS announcing agreements with Beaches MLS,  State-Wide MLS, a subsidiary of Rhode Island Association of Realtors, Miami Association of Realtors, Bright MLS and Georgia’s First Multiple Listing Service (FMLS).
