Can I get MLS data, property records, Web API access or credentials from RESO?
RESO does not provide MLS real estate data, property records or access to the APIs of other organizations. RESO creates the standards for the data, and other organizations build technology based upon it. Access to data from a Web API service comes from the MLS or other data provider organization. Data consumers work directly with that organization’s API provider or technical staff to receive credentials and instructions on how to access data.
