Realtors Property Resource - RPR & realtor.com

Realtors Property Resource�

The goal of Realtors Property Resource� (RPR) is to provide NAR members access to a national database of valuable data on every property in the United States. With RPR, you have unparalleled access to data that will give you a competitive edge with your clients.

At its base are over 147 million property records, built from public record and assessment information. Then layers of data have been added such as zoning, permits, and mortgage and lien data, schools, and the largest database of foreclosure information in the industry. REALTOR� members of participating MLSs will also have their localized MLS active and off-market data integrated with these robust national data sets.

You can access RPR right through your MLS- Paragon - just click on this icon... and there you are!
