What the Heck Is the RESO Data Dictionary and Why Is It Such a Big Deal?

August 18 2015

data wordThe work of RESO has been getting a warm reception lately, and we've come a long way in the nine months since the National Association of REALTORS mandated that "all MLS organizations owned and operated by associations of REALTORS® will implement the RESO Standards including: the RESO Data Dictionary by January 1, 2016."

But we have a long way to go because I am still asked by agents, brokers, and multiple listing services, "What the heck is the RESO Dictionary?" almost everywhere I go.

The good news is that our message about what the Data Dictionary is – the "Rosetta Stone for real estate listing data" – is resonating with brokers. They are not only hearing our message, they understand why this is such a big deal and are acting on the value they see in what we are doing by becoming members of RESO. More brokers than ever are going to be having a seat at the table by contributing to our R&D Workgroup, helping both shape future iterations of the Data Dictionary and creating more new standards to foster innovation that will further RESO's mission to drive efficiency throughout the real estate industry.

The new content on our website (reso.org) is designed to answer both the technical and non-technical questions anyone has about not only the Data Dictionary, but other RESO created standards and the crucial certification process that is key to the adoption of standards that will drive efficiency throughout the real estate industry. Plus, we're working hard to get in front of as many influencers and leaders as possible to help us spread the word about Data Dictionary Certification and the role of RESO.
