Together We Are “Making the Market Work”

A Quick Note to our North Alabama MLS Subscribers:

Every day, over 3000 real estate professionals wake up knowing they can count on reliable market information, agreed-upon rules and professional norms, and certainty about how they compensate and are compensated when working together with the North Alabama MLS. NALMLS provides much more than data; it establishes and safeguards the conditions necessary for a large and diverse group of real estate brokers, agents and service providers to work together constructively to serve all of our clients in North Alabama and throughout the greater Tennessee Valley. This is true not only today, but for the past 50 years. As our industry evolves and changes, we face each day with a new certainty that our MLS is leading the nation in innovation, technology and service to our participants and subscribers. Around here we like to say that the North Alabama MLS is “Making the Market Work.”

As real estate brokers and agents, we sustain the American Dream of homeownership, and nearly all of us rely upon the North Alabama MLS system to do that important work. 2018 has been an exciting chapter in our MLS’s history launching a slew of new tools, technology, and receiving some national attention for doing so, all while maintaining the listing database that powers our marketplace. Our public search site, ValleyMLS.com  has seen record gains of viewership with the launch of our new user interface and our consumer campaign in partnership with our local NBC affiliate, WAFF48 News. And the year is just getting started…

As the leadership of the largest regional MLS partnership in Alabama, we just wanted to take a moment and thank you for your continued partnership and membership. When we all work together, it’s amazing what we can accomplish. $2,688,168,033.00 total sales volume occurred in the first 6 months of 2018 through the power of partnership among our 6 Realtor® associations that make up our NALMLS database. The MLS is nothing short of a miracle… thousands of competitors cooperating to make homeownership happen and powering a piece of the overall North Alabama economy. That’s the real power of the North Alabama MLS.

We wish you all the best in the months ahead and again, thank you.

Your leaders and friends,

Sha, Valerie, Cindi, Zelda, & Josh
