LOS ANGELES (August 9) – The Rim O’ the World Association of REALTORS® will make RELAY® online transaction management available free to its members, the association announced today, making it the second association in the San Bernardino Mountains area to offer its members the REALTOR®-owned online real estate system.
Rim O’ the World joins other California Association of REALTORS ® in adding RELAY® to its member benefits, including its neighbor, the Victor Valley Association of REALTORS®. Many local California Associations are leading the way by offering this new technology as part of their member benefits.
RELAY®, an easy-to-use Internet tool for real estate professionals, recently released RELAY® Version 3.0. The latest version of the software includes public documents and greater networking flexibility .
“We strive to be on the cutting edge of service and technology to our members and clients. RELAY® will allow us to achieve that goal,” says Jim Grimes, President of Rim O’ the World AOR. “As professionals, we are looked upon to have the answers to all the questions. With RELAY®, not only do we have the answers for our members and clients, we have them 24 hours a day. This is what sets us apart from non-REALTORS®. We have taken a huge leap into the future, and we like it.”
“RELAY® transaction management is a logical expansion of WINFormsOnline ®,” says, C.A.R. President Vince Malta. “By offering RELAY® as a member benefit alongside WINForms ® electronic forms software, AORs are pushing forward the vision of a complete electronic transaction process that is REALTOR ®-owned.”
RELAY® features one-click integration with ZipForm® and WINForms Online®, the electronic forms software used by nearly 400,000 REALTORS® nationwide. The one-click integration allows users to move transaction data and the completed forms – purchase agreements and disclosure documents for example – to a RELAY® transaction website. As a Web-based tool, there is no hardware to purchase or software to install in order to use RELAY®. All that is required is Internet access; agents or their clients can view their online transaction anytime, anywhere.
RELAY® was declared compliant with current security standards following an application audit by Cybertrust Inc., a global information security services specialist. RELAY® also was awarded the REALTOR® Secure designation by the National Association of REALTORS®’ Center for REALTOR® Technology (CRT). The designation covers the entire REBT organization, including the RELAY® application, certifying that best practices are in place to protect real estate information and systems from risk.
