Zillow Joins Real Estate Standards Organization (RESO)

We are pleased to announce that Zillow has joined the Real Estate Standards Organization (RESO). As a member of RESO, Zillow will help inform the development of technology and data standards within the real estate industry.

What is RESO?

RESO is a nonprofit group tasked with standardizing real estate data so that it can be used consistently by multiple listing services, vendors and third parties. Data standardization promotes data accuracy, consistency and availability across the industry, leading to reduced costs of real estate application development.

“Accurate and timely real estate data has always been a top priority for Zillow, and RESO has done a fantastic job spearheading an industry-wide effort to standardize data and improve collaboration” said Errol Samuelson, Zillow chief industry development officer. “Better and more widely adopted data standards mean increased data accuracy – and that benefits everyone from agents and brokers to buyers and sellers. We are proud to become a member and look forward helping to shape how the real estate industry handles data.”
