OneKey® MLS, the largest Multiple Listing Service in New York, has launched an integration with RentSpree’s platform to streamline rental transactions. Now, all OneKey MLS subscribers will have access to RentSpree’s ApplyLink™ for new and existing rental listings, cutting down transaction time, limiting liability, increasing efficiency, and keeping the agent central to the rental transaction.


“The integration launched less than two months after the partnership was announced, demonstrating outstanding levels of collaboration and teamwork from all parties involved,” OneKey® MLS CEO Richard Haggerty said. “RentSpree is the latest in a series of resources we’ve added that allow us to continue delivering on our focus to empower our subscribers to grow their businesses with the latest and greatest real estate technologies available on the market.”


Demand for rentals in the New York regional marketplace continues to be strong, especially as interest rates make the homebuying journey more difficult for average buyers. Despite rental prices continuing to rise in New York, with fewer homes for sale, more prospective tenants are completing rental applications.


This was a driving factor in the decision to partner with RentSpree, CEO Haggerty said. “We believe this flagship rental tool can make a difference in our subscribers’ daily lives, make their workflow more efficient, and make it easier for them to aggregate all the pieces required for a successful rental transaction.”


Added RentSpree Co-Founder and CEO Michael Lucarelli, “Since we announced our partnership, our team has worked at record speed to ensure a smooth, successful integration. We are excited for OneKey® MLS subscribers to have access to our software, which will cut down the processing time from days to minutes on such important tasks as tenant screening as well as other valuable real estate tools.”

Once enabled, OneKey® MLS subscribers need only toggle RentSpree on for each of their rental listings and RentSpree will do the rest – walking prospective tenants through the application process, collecting application fees, screening tenants, and alerting subscribers when completed applications have been submitted.


“RentSpree will allow our subscribers to drastically reduce the time they take with any individual rental transaction and easily manage the entire process with just a couple of clicks,” said CEO Haggerty.

From writing property descriptions to analyzing market data, generating photo descriptions, AI can help REALTORS® save time, work more efficiently, and unlock new opportunities for client service. But with new technology comes new questions: Is AI safe? Is it reliable? Could it put my clients or my business at risk? As part of REALTOR® Safety Month , let’s explore the realities of AI in real estate and outline practical steps you can take to use it both effectively and responsibly.

National Homeownership Month is an opportunity to raise awareness about the challenges that make homeownership an accessible option for everyone and to evolve the conversation about what a home looks like. We also want to highlight individuals and initiatives that are working towards helping those in need. Impactful Lives is a nonprofit organization supporting unhoused young mothers living in shelters. Founded by Natasha Williams, the organization adopts a holistic, community-driven approach to address five critical challenges faced by these mothers: reproductive justice, economic insecurity, youth development, educational attainment, and food insecurity. Through tailored support, mentorship, career guidance, and essential provisions, Impactful Lives empowers these women to transform their circumstances and emerge as thriving contributors to society. With the mantra "The time to make a difference is now," Impactful Lives offers several programs focused on mental health support, provides essential supplies, and celebrates achievements. These programs include back-to-school and essential item drives, grocery store outings to help mothers purchase fresh produce, moving celebrations for those transitioning to independent living, and intimate sessions where successful mothers volunteer to share their personal journeys, offering hope and inspiration to moms currently in shelter. Additionally, their annual signature event: hosting uplifting Mother’s Day brunches at the shelters serves as a moment of refresh and inspiration. Lastly, Impactful Lives works with women to build a plan for homeownership that includes down payment assistance, aided by DPR (a resource provided through OneKey MLS). Natasha Williams, the driving force behind Impactful Lives, brings over 15 years of expertise in finance, a distinguished background as a youth educator, and a successful career in real estate. Her unwavering commitment to community empowerment and social change inspired her to create this self-funded nonprofit, where she serves as both founder and president with passion and dedication. She also regularly teaches first-time homebuying seminars to help buyers navigate the process and partners with housing agencies to expand access to down payment assistance, financial education, and sustainable homeownership opportunities. In 2023, Natasha Williams was honored with the REALTOR® Spirit Award from the Long Island Board of REALTORS® for her extraordinary impact and dedication to her community. Under her leadership, Impactful Lives continues to ignite hope and foster meaningful change for young mothers in need.
