Our mission is to bring MLSs together to combine
listing data in your home MLS.

 

The Down River Association of REALTORS®, Jackson Area Association of REALTORS®, Lenawee County Association of REALTORS®, Monroe County Association of REALTORS®, MiRealSource, Ann Arbor Area Board of REALTORS® and Saginaw Board of REALTORS® are proud members of the Great Lakes Repository (GLR). REALTORS® from these organizations have been working together for nearly three years to develop this cooperative solution.

The purpose of the Great Lakes Repository is to permit all Michigan MLSs to combine and share listing content for the benefit of the MLS users in the participating MLSs home database. The MLSs abide by individual Data Sharing Agreements, which also governs the treatment of IDX Data. The group’s mission statement, “Bringing MLS data together to combine information in your home MLS” reinforces the position of having all the data in your home MLS for single sign-on capability. The GLR provides the listing data and your MLS provides a full menu of functionality.  Participants will, therefore, view the data in a familiar environment without the disruption of learning a new MLS system or the cost of joining another MLS.
