The Ottawa Real Estate Board (OREB), with the Renfrew County Real Estate Board, Rideau-St. Lawrence Real Estate Board and Cornwall and District Real Estate Board, recently announced their adoption of PropTx, a technology platform with tools, insights and applications that provide a secure real estate transaction process.
The Kingston and Area Real Estate Association says it too will adopt PropTx. Several other Ontario real estate boards and associations are currently using the platform.
The move will help OREB in its mission to provide its 4,000 members with “leading-edge resources to achieve success in our community’s real estate market.”
OREB President Curtis Fillier explains: “The progression to using PropTx is about harnessing shared data and combined buying power to provide a comprehensive suite of tools that will empower realtors and their clients to make informed strategic real estate choices in a rapidly moving industry.”
PropTx’s suite of tools includes:
- Realm, a mobile-first platform that merges land registry and MLS data
- CoreLogic, a platform that realtors currently use
- SkySlope Forms and SkySlope Offers, for the offer experience
- HoodQ, which offers hyper-local data and more
- Fintracker, an identification and verification tool compliant with Canada’s financial intelligence, anti-money laundering and anti-terrorist financing initiatives
“Buying and selling property are among the most important transactions in a person’s life. With PropTx, OREB is building more capacity to help members provide unparalleled service with confidence,” Fillier says.
