On Wednesday, July 7^th, MRMLS Matrix will include all CARETS Roster information from the participating MLSs  of CARETS – CLAW, CRISNet, iTech, and SoCAL MLS.

You will have the ability to search for all CARETS Agents and Offices within the Roster tab of MRMLS Matrix.  A prefix of three alpha characters followed by a dash (-) will be appended to their Agent User ID and Office Code.

This prefix does not affect any MRMLS Matrix Agents or Offices.  Your MRMLS Matrix User ID and Office Code will remain the same.

IMPORTANT: If you are a Listing Agent working with a participating CARETS agent, please discontinue the use of the “out of area” User ID when entering the Selling Agent, Co-Selling Agent or Co-Listing Agent into your listing.  You can now use the CARETS agents found in Matrix Roster to populate those fields.  If you are working with an agent outside of CARETS, please continue to use the “out of area” User ID.

The table below will help you distinguish the identity of the Agent User ID and Office Code.

This is a notification that your Commercial, Commercial Lease and/or Business Opportunity listing will be moving to the new CARETS Property Centric Commercial system.

The new CARETS Commercial system will import all commercial listings from the MRMLS Matrix database.

When MRMLS deploys the newCARETS Commercial system, you will no longer have the ability to access your Commercial listing within Add/Edit tab of MRMLS Matrix.  Instead you will need to modify, add and search for listings through the “Commercial” tab located at the top section of MRMLS Matrix.

IMPORTANT: If you currently pull commercial data from the MRMLS RETS server to populate your website or back office system, you will need to transition over to the new CARETS Commercial Web Service to prevent any disruptions.

Please contact MRMLS customer support for more information at 800-925-1525 or fill out your request at www.imrmls.com/SupportRequest.

TRAINING: Watch out for future training opportunities within the coming weeks.  Webinars will be held prior to the deployment date.

CARETS and ePropertyData have teamed up to create a new CARETS Commercial Property Centric system.  This new system will allow you to add your commercial, commercial lease and business opportunity listings directly into the system with the ability to view commercial listings through most of Southern California.

As with any new change we look for your input.   MRMLS values and needs the input of working professionals, such as yourself, in order to make our systems everything that they should be.

IMPORTANT: if you currently pull our commercial listings to feed your website or back-end office system you will need to transition over to the new CARETS Commercial system to prevent any disruption of services.  Please contact our customer support for more information at 800-925-1525 or fill out your request at www.imrmls.com/SupportRequest

Stay tuned in the coming weeks for more training and information on how to access CARETS Commercial.

If a property does not have an assigned APN (Assessor’s Parcel Number), do not use any filler numbers such as “9s” when adding a listing. Instead leave the APN field BLANK.

Do not leave APN field blank when a property has a valid APN. It is a violation of the CARETS Data Integrity Standards. Instead, you must input the valid APN for the property you are listing into the MLS.

Starting May 1st, a revised CARETS Data Integrity Standards and Standardized Rules & Regulations will be enforced.

Click here to read the list of changes between the original and revised rules and policies.

Example a property without an APN:

• Do not put any filler numbers such as “9s” in the APN field
  

• Instead leave the APN field blank when a property does not have an APN
