Access to the real estate platform Rayse has been provided to all realMLS members at no additional cost. The platform, designed to improve transparency in real estate transactions, is now available through agents’ realMLS dashboards and at rayse.com/realmls.
The rollout comes on the heels of a major platform update from Rayse, which recently added tools for home sellers.
Previously focused on buyers, the expanded platform now allows agents to provide visibility across the full transaction process — something many in the industry are pushing for as real estate practices adjust to changes stemming from the 2024 antitrust commission lawsuits.
“Rayse helps agents show the story behind the sale. We’re proud to be one of the first MLSs in the country offering this platform to all realMLS customers,” said Nicole Jensen, CEO of realMLS. “Our agents work incredibly hard for their clients. Rayse helps them demonstrate that effort in a way that builds trust and reinforces their value — something our MLS customers need now more than ever.”
According to data from Rayse, 46% of consumers believe agents spend fewer than 15 hours on a purchase deal, while the actual average is closer to 87 hours. Additionally, 96% of consumers expressed interest in real-time updates on their agent’s efforts, and 64% said they would consider paying more if such transparency were available.
“We built Rayse to help agents thrive in a world where transparency and value demonstration are no longer optional,” said James Dwiggins, CEO of Rayse. “We’re thrilled to partner with realMLS to bring this vision to life for their members. This is about protecting the profession and reshaping consumer trust — one transaction at a time.”
To mark the launch, realMLS agents who activate the platform before Oct. 31 will be entered into a raffle for a chance to win four tickets to a Jacksonville Jaguars game.
