Real Estate Transaction Standard

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

RETS is an acronym which stands for Real Estate Transaction Standard

RETS was created to overcome the difficulties presented by the existence of a large number of organizations desiring to share and distribute real estate information with others. RETS addressed this need by providing a common standard for the exchange of real estate data. Many MLS data exchange service providers use the RETS protocol.
