Austin, Texas (January 15, 2015)--Builders Digital Experience, Inc. (BDX) announced that customers of Rockville, MD based Metropolitan Regional Information Systems (MRIS), the industry-leading Mid-Atlantic region multiple listing service (MLS), now have access to new home construction data. The new home data is compiled solely from real estate agent-friendly builders (builders committed to pay compensation to real estate agents participating in the transaction) and is available via a new integration agreement with New Home Source Professional. New Home Source Professional is the premier web site for real estate professionals to get all of the information that they need about new homes and communities for their clients.

Designed specifically for real estate agents, New Home Source Professional has the largest searchable collection of new homes available anywhere, including plans, builder promotions and community-level data.

MRIS is part of a growing list of MLS organizations across the country that are working with New Home Source Professional to bring this new home data to MLS customers. As part of the agreements, these MLSs have a turnkey, branded "new home channel" accessible through their MLS interface. MLS customers can search and view builders' new home inventory from within their MLS systems through a customized version of NewHomeSourceProfessional.com. This access to new home information allows agents to serve buyers in an increasingly competitive digital landscape.
