Great questions Austin. We've spent the last 6 months "exploring" the data supply chain and have learned first hand how fragmented and closed the system really is.

National coverage is nearly impossible unless you go through an aggregator like ListHub or Point2, but this doesn't work for real buyers because of delayed, inaccurate and incomplete information. The only reliable way to get listing data in most regions is by opening an office and joining the local MLS.

Our non-answer is that we plan to focus on our clients in California for the time being while we nail the customer experience before thinking about expansion.
