A stronger real estate market starts with data professionals can trust.

That was one of the clearest takeaways from IREC 2026 held in Hyderabad, India, where Shayne Fairley and Dr. Mathew Kallumadil joined NAR leaders, developers, brokers and agents from across India and around the world. Change takes time, and agreement on one point was strong: India needs organized, validated property data.

UCO is proud to work with NAR India to bring MLS to the country, giving real estate professionals more reliable data to build on and maximizing listing exposure inside and outside India. With broad industry support behind it, MLS in India is moving from concept to reality.

Featured Article 📖

What makes MLS data valuable? A major part of the answer is comprehensive participation.

Sam DeBord, CEO of the Real Estate Standards Organization (RESO), explores that connection in his latest article for Real Estate News.
He looks at how MLS organizations can reward meaningful data contributions, establish stronger commercial licensing relationships and prepare for a future in which AI companies increasingly rely on high-quality real estate information.

The article also highlights the Global Data Exchange (GDX) as one framework that can support independent data agreements with organizations inside and outside the traditional real estate industry.

It’s an important conversation about the future of MLS cooperation, data governance and the value created by shared marketplaces.

Sam will continue these global industry conversations as a keynote speaker at the 2026 International MLS Forum in Istanbul.
