The MLS system explained

Towards the late 1800s, the MLS (Multiple Listing Service) System was created. The CREA (Canadian Real Estate Association) and the NAR (National Association of Realtors) were the original founders of the MLS System, and still today only their members may make use of it. When one broker is given the opportunity to sell a home, he then notifies other realtors who are part of the MLS System to market the home as well.
