What is MetroList MLS?

Metrolist is the biggest MLS in Northern California, and it is one of the most important MLS across the country.

It serves more than 20,000 real estate professionals in the region.

It is the ultimate voice of real estate data in Northern California with an eye on support to realtors even outside the coverage area. 

History

It all started in 1985 when the Sacramento, Placer and El Dorado Association of REALTORS® started working together to create a computerized system. Later, the following associations joined Metrolist, and it became the major provider of listings data in the Central Valley region:

  • Lodi Association of REALTORS®
  • Stockton Association of REALTORS®
  • Amador County Association of REALTORS®
  • Yolo County Association of REALTORS®
  • Brokers in Western Merced County

Metrolist was the first MLS in the US to receive the highest Data Dictionary Certification from RESO in 2015.
