RealReports expands national footprint through Imagine MLS partnership


February 19, 2025

Kentucky Real Estate Agents to Benefit from Next-Gen, AI-Driven Property Insights

RealReports, the AI property supertool for real estate agents, continues its nationwide advance via a new partnership with Imagine MLS. Now the 4,000 Central and Southern Kentucky member agents will receive access to RealReports’ AI-powered property advisor, arming them with a competitive edge in today’s cut-throat and shifting real estate market. This is RealReports’ first foray into Kentucky, but the third new client announcement of 2025; bolstering their unprecedented growth in an industry that is traditionally slower to adopt new technology.


“We’re always looking for practical, forward-thinking solutions to help our members stay ahead, so RealReports’ timing couldn’t be better,” said Richard Gibbens, CEO at Imagine MLS. “We’ve entered a new era as an industry and agents’ ability to articulate their unique value clearly is more important than ever. RealReports has expertly cracked the code on empowering agents at every step of the buying and listing lifecycle, leveraging advanced AI, data, and a seamless product experience.”


RealReports can be likened to an AI-supercharged “Carfax for homes.” Available for nearly 150 million properties in the US, each RealReport aggregates a comprehensive repository of property and area data from over 60 best-in-class providers. Manning the helm of each report is Aiden, a multimodal AI “property advisor,” that analyzes hundreds of thousands of datapoints to answer any question an agent or their client may have about a home. Varied queries including the existence of open permits, expected flood insurance premiums, upcoming special assessments, estimated Airbnb rental values, and more can all be fielded by Aiden in mere seconds.


“Our team intimately understands how much critical information is required throughout a real estate transaction and how hard and time-consuming it is to get your hands on reliable, accurate, and up-to-date data,” says James Rogers, RealReports’ co-founder and CEO. “Knowledge is power and no doubt, one of RealReports’ great strengths is positioning agents to be more competitive and data-driven, in a fraction of the time. But there’s more to it–RealReports helps protect sellers, prevent buyer’s remorse, and mitigate risk. It’s a way for agents to ‘dot their i's and cross their t's’ before submitting an offer or listing a home, allowing their clients to proceed with confidence, knowing they’ve left no stone unturned.”


RealReports’ dataset covers essential property details you’d expect as part of the due diligence process, such as liens and permitted uses, timely factors like wildfire risk and historical natural disasters, and every other nook and cranny related to the property, parcel, and surrounding area. The advantages RealReports affords to real estate agents extend far beyond just a high-fidelity knowledge base.


“Our secret sauce has perhaps less to do with the data itself [though it remains vital] and more to do with how RealReports provides consistent, repetitive value to an agent,” says Zach Gorman, co-founder and COO of RealReports. “We have an accessible use-case for every vector of an agent’s day-to-day. It can be used for prospecting and lead farming, building credibility and trust with clients, streamlining research, marketing listings, generating leads, analyzing documents, engaging past buyers and sellers, and more.”


With their new partnership in place, Imagine MLS members are leading the pack in Kentucky and widening the chasm forming between agents clinging to the past and those progressive vanguards charging forward into the real estate industry’s future.


"There’s no better team to work with than RealReports,” says Richard Gibbens. “They’re organized, thoughtful, dialed, and ludicrously fast builders. We will ask them about a new product feature or improvement and instead of hearing back months later (or never), they’ll have it done the next day. In our space, that’s unheard of.”


The deal with Imagine MLS is one of RealReports’ many planned expansions for early 2025. The proptech powerhouse shows no signs of slowing down in its mission to transform the real estate landscape for practitioners, consumers, and builders alike.

For consumers looking to purchase a property, the more data, the better to help with the search. Bluegrass Realtors®, along with Imagine MLS, is thrilled to announce a new partnership with Columbus REALTORS® out of Ohio that will provide MLS subscribers from both associations with increased search capabilities and available residential property data to aid clients and customers. “Real estate is no longer just a local experience. For many people, they are looking to relocate, or possibly purchase a second home, vacation home or investment property in other parts of the region,” continued Katrina Bowers, Interim CEO at Bluegrass REALTORS®. “Columbus and Bluegrass working together on a real estate data partnership opens up that possibility and makes it easier for our Realtor® members to search available properties in real-time on one platform for their clients.” For Bluegrass Realtors®, this is the fourth such data share that has been brought online. The first three were partnerships with Greater Louisville Association of Realtors®, Northern Kentucky Association of Realtors® and, most recently, East Tennessee Realtors®, which covers the Knoxville and surrounding areas. The Columbus partnership is significant as the organization is the largest local real estate Association in Ohio and covers most of the central Ohio region. There are close to 10,000 real estate professionals engaged in the industry throughout Columbus’ 12 county jurisdiction. This data share is the first of its kind for Columbus Realtors®. “This is an important partnership for Columbus REALTORS® and the Columbus & Central Ohio Regional MLS,” said Columbus Realtors® CEO Brent Swander. “Our industry is changing rapidly and the data that our MLSs collect are powerful tools linking our members with the consumer.” Swander continued, “I look at this as a significant first step toward a greater goal of partnerships and sharing throughout the region and the country. We would like to thank Katrina Bowers, the Interim CEO at Bluegrass REALTORS® for her cooperation in this venture along with our friends at FBS (the MLS provider).” Members of Bluegrass Realtors® can now provide clients with available residential properties throughout much of Kentucky, the Knoxville, Tennessee area and now, Columbus, Ohio.  “Working with a member of Bluegrass Realtors® provides many valuable benefits to clients searching for homes,” stated Bowers. “As the MLS takes on new partnerships and expands its reach, Realtors® will continue to grow the amount of data at their fingertips to better facilitate the search process.”
