The Austin/Central Texas Realty Information Services (ACTRIS) works to enable MLS subscribers to increase their value to the consumer by delivering accurate and immediate market information. If MLS content is inaccurate, REALTORS® will not have the tools required to effectively list and sell properties.
If you discover a listing containing invalid information, please contact the listing agent or broker first. By working together, we can improve the quality of the MLS. Agents may also report violations by sending an e-mail message to betterdata@abor.com or calling 512/454-7636. Reporting members remain anonymous.
