The International MLS [IMLS] Forms Esteemed Advisory Board
Online, July 18, 2012 (Newswire.com) - The International MLS [IMLS] has announced today the formation its first Advisory Board, comprised of well known leaders in the Real Estate Marketplace.
The International MLS' Advisory Board is chaired by Dr. Daniel Nussbaum, CEO of The International Realty Inc., and founder of The International MLS based out of Los Angeles, California. Daniel, a licensed real estate broker and former dentist, embarked upon the mission of bringing the real estate world and consumers closer together by creating The International MLS [IMLS].
Daniel's initial thoughts for developing The IMLS were to try and create the perfect blend of the traditional tried and true referral business model between brokers with the more interactive online technology. Today, The IMLS has created the process to empower real estate brokers from all over the world to come together and share their property listings and commissions via the first IMLS globally delivered search. The IMLS search can be placed on any website and generate income for agents and brokers through its automated closed channel lead generation system by simply having a website customer register through their search and purchase a property somewhere in the world outside of their normal market.
"The IMLS has framed itself to be an initiative that is FOR Brokers, BY Brokers, as well as also being owned by Brokers through what will be a major global cooperative effort. I believe that we have assembled an outstanding initial group of advisors who have a long track record of leadership in the real estate industry, are located in each corner of the USA, and approach real estate and international real estate from various vantage points. I am personally honored to have their support and to be a part of this visionary group. Combining the experience and expertise of these team members is exciting and I am confident that we can continue to create and develop The IMLS to fundamentally impact and improve the state of our industry." says CEO, Dr. Daniel Nussbaum.
