IRES Broker Forum Regarding MLS Data Sharing Efforts

On Nov 6th, 2009 IRES held a broker forum called "MLS of Choice: Are we there yet?"  The intent was to review where we've been, where we are now, and where we need to go with the IRES and Denver MLS data sharing. We used an audience response system so we could ask questions and give everyone an opportunity to respond. The responses were interesting and can be viewed here.

IRES Adds eSignature Technology to its Online Contract System IRES Selects DocuSign to Speed Real Estate Transactions, Reduce Operating Costs and Close Deals Faster Information and Real Estate Services, LLC (IRES), the regional Multiple Listing Service (MLS) serving the Front Range region of Colorado, today announced that it has incorporated DocuSign’s eSignature service into IRES’ innovative online contracts system. IRES provides Colorado real estate brokers with real estate forms, approved by the Colorado Real Estate Commission, that are accessible from any computer. The addition of DocuSign’s eSignature service into IRES’ contract system provides agents and their customers the easiest and fastest way to finalize contracts and documents. By incorporating DocuSign’s eSignature service into IRES’ contract system, agents can close deals faster than their competitors, reduce skyrocketing costs for gas and couriers, and eliminate the problems associated with blurry, hard-to-read contracts that have been faxed multiple times. DocuSign is very easy to use for both agents and customers. Agents can place virtual “Sign Here” Stick-e-Tabs™ on documents indicating where the customers are to sign or initial, then instantly send those documents online to customers who can access them from any computer, sign with a personalized eSignature, and return the signed documents in a matter of minutes — as opposed to having the real estate agent drive the documents to the customer or fax them to their home. In addition the DocuSign process is more secure than using the antiquated fax signature process and greatly improves customer satisfaction. ”In today’s highly volatile economy, winning companies are continually examining ways to improve business processes and DocuSign’s eSignature service offers immediate, tangible benefits,” said Matthew J. Schiltz, CEO and President of DocuSign. “The real estate market is a very competitive industry and IRES subscribers will now be able to close deals faster and lock in more deals every month than their competitors who use the out-dated, paper-based system. In addition, our service ensures client confidentiality since no forms are left lying on the fax machine for anyone to read.” “We are extremely excited to offer eSignatures to our subscribers. This moves our online contracts system into the paperless generation. We are proud to be forerunners by incorporating this technology into our MLS system,” said Niki Moran, Projects Manager at IRES. DocuSign, winner of the 2008 Innovation Showcase Award presented by TechWeb, has more than 2,000 customers with more than 400,000 users. Customers include corporate leaders in financial services and banking, insurance, technology, education, mortgage and travel. DocuSign’s eSignature service provides companies with greater velocity, visibility and efficiency into the document signing process, helping them to close deals faster, increase profitability, and improve their competitive position. These companies have abandoned or greatly reduced their use of paper, printers, fax machines and mail couriers, reducing costs and improving efficiencies. The DocuSign service has a tremendously positive impact on the environment since it greatly reduces the amount of paper and fuel used as well as carbon monoxide emissions produced by trucks and airplanes for global delivery of documents. *** About Information and Real Estate Services, LLC (IRES) IRES was formed in 1996 as the regional multiple Listing Service (MLS) for Northern Colorado by five Boards and Associations of REALTORS® in Boulder, Fort Collins, Greeley, Longmont, and Loveland/Berthoud.
