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

MAR MLS Exploratory Task Force 2008
 

It's been 5 years since the start of the Great Lakes Repository (GLR) and we've grown! With the addition of the Flint Area Association of REALTORS® and Hillsdale County Board of REALTORS®,
we've grown to 10 MLSs in the GLR!

The following organizations are current members of the GLR sharing partnership:

• Ann Arbor Area Board of REALTORS®
• Down River Association of REALTORS®
• Flint Area Association of REALTORS®
• Greater Shiawassee Association of REALTORS®
• Hillsdale County Board of REALTORS®
• Jackson Area Association of REALTORS®
• Lenawee County Association of REALTORS®
• MiRealSource – MMLS
• Monroe County Association of REALTORS®
• Saginaw Board of REALTORS®

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. 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.
