All data exported from RETS must be from one of these classes. 

 

 

The “Removed Listings” contains a list of properties that have been deleted from MLS.  Listings are rarely deleted from MLS, but under special circumstances it does occurs.  Typically if the listing agent and listing secretary both enter the same listing, one of the listings will be deleted from MLS.  As you will not know what listings were deleted or when, you will need to use the listings in the “Removed Listings” class to remove these listings from the data you have downloaded.

 

The following classes are not to be used as they are not complete and may contain information that is not useful to you:
