Analytics and Reporting Overview

CREA provides data to several of its own websites (Realtor.ca) and mobile applications (iPhone, iPad, Android, etc.), as well as distributing data using DDF® to member websites, brokerage owner sites, franchisors and Real Estate Advertising Websites.

With a single listing potentially being viewed on dozens of different websites and applications, agents and brokerage owners need a way to track where their listing data is being viewed. To accomplish this, CREA has developed a solution that allows for the collection of all listing activity.
