What types of MLS integrations are available?
Brokermint offers two different versions of RETS integrations with MLS. The first is a listings-only feed, which would provide you any listing that falls under your office’s Office ID # with that MLS. A second full-feed option allows you to search through the entire MLS. Not every MLS offers a full feed. And, many that do, charge you for this type of service.

How do I accept updates from MLS?
To accept updates from MLS, locate the 'Incoming updates' dropdown section on the Transactions page. Within this section, you'll notice the 'CHANGES' badge adjacent to the transaction line item. Click 'Accept' near the transaction to trigger a modal window showcasing all the changes. To apply specific changes, tick the checkboxes next to them and click 'Update.' After selecting the desired changes, they will be applied to the transaction.
Can agents accept their own transactions?
Agents can accept transactions in two cases:
If an agent is directly assigned to a transaction, it automatically becomes its owner. The agent still needs to add other contacts manually.
Agents with the 'Can manage transactions' permission can oversee transactions throughout the brokerage and accept them.
How does the assignment of incoming MLS transactions work?
When you assign an agent to an incoming MLS transaction, that agent will now access the transaction update and can accept or decline it. Assignment can be done manually by clicking the assign to dropdown near the related transaction in the 'Incoming updates' list.
Alternatively, you can enable automatic assignments through the add-on page configurations, ensuring smooth and efficient distribution.
