Reliable data is essential to every real estate transaction. That’s why Remine aims to improve data accuracy and quality within its platform in 2021. See below for the next steps Remine will take to ensure this.

Remine has deployed a new data corrections team as part of its improved data verification process. When agents report discrepancies in public record data, Remine’s team will investigate the issue and make any necessary corrections. The ability for Remine to directly make corrections for a property or a county will significantly improve request turnaround times. If you submit a correction request, Remine will work to resolve it as quickly as possible. Most requests are completed within 3-5 business days. 

Remine will also be partnering with Neustar, an industry leader in consumer intelligence, to improve data within the platform. Agents will soon see this reflected in the contact information displayed in the Associated People section of the Property Details page. This new data source will provide agents with access to more accurate and quality data.
