MLS in The Bahamas - The future is now

On March 17th 2008 The Bahamas MLS was launched, and since then 81 licensed agents of about 600 licensed agents scattered throughout The Bahama Islands, have signed on board to take part in the future of real estate.

Since the start of the industry in The Bahamas, it has been pretty much run the same. Sure Presidents and Board members a like have come and gone through time, but this is the first real step towards the 30th century if you will.

Last week I interviewed Heather Joy Albury, Administrator of The Bahamas MLS, who informed me that the newly developed Bahamas MLS system which is "a new concept" for The Bahamas, currently has "81 members from 23 different companies". From these 81 licensed estate agents, they have added 115 active exclusive listing on the new MLS for The Bahamas.

Heather Joy said, "[there is] positive participation within the MLS." She continued by saying "I believe that in 6 months time we would have doubled the agents and listings [on the Bahamas MLS] if not tripled [them]."

For a number of years, Abaco, one of the major islands in The Bahamas, had created and used their own MLS system aptly named The Abaco MLS. Heather Joy informed me that the "Abaco MLS will be joining the Bahamas MLS" sometime in the future so we have more to look forward to.
