Neighbourly delivers a complete location intelligence layer to your members through your existing MLS infrastructure. RESO-aligned, privacy-first, and ready ahead of the disclosure mandates already on the horizon.
If any of these sound familiar, you're not alone. These are the recurring concerns we built Neighbourly to address — directly, and at the level of detail your committees actually need.
"Our listing platform looks more and more like everyone else's. The national portals can outspend us on UX. What can we offer our members that they can't get from a Zillow or Realtor.ca?"
"We know energy disclosure is coming. Ontario has been signaling it for years. We need a path that doesn't leave us scrambling when it lands."
"Every new vendor adds operational risk. Our tech team is already running flat. We can't take on a months-long integration to add three more API calls."
"We're a member-funded organization. Anything we add has to be defensible to the board, the membership, and the budget cycle. Tell me how this pencils out."
Members don't have to learn anything new. Neighbourly data appears on every listing automatically, populated through the addresses your members already enter. See what an enhanced listing looks like →
Neighbourly sits behind your MLS, not in front of it. Your members keep using the system they know. Your data flows where it always has. We just add layers on the way through.
Listings flow into your system the way they always have — through agent submissions, IDX feeds, or board-managed entry.
Each listing is matched to the Neighbourly graph. Address normalized, hierarchy resolved, layers attached.
Enriched data flows back into your platform — surfaced wherever you choose, in the design language your members already trust.
Boards operate under real scrutiny — from privacy commissioners, RESO governance, and a membership that expects rigorous data handling. We've engineered Neighbourly to meet the bar before the questions are asked.
Energy data flows only with explicit homeowner consent and is delivered as aggregated, listing-appropriate insights — never raw consumption. PIPEDA-compliant; provincial privacy law respected as the floor, not the ceiling.
Output fields map to the RESO Data Dictionary where standards exist, with transparent extension fields where they don't yet. No proprietary lock-in, no schema mystery — just data that fits where MLS systems expect data to fit.
Every data point carries provenance — utility partner, municipal source, census vintage, last refresh. When a member or regulator asks "where did this come from," there is always a documented answer.
No surprise contracts, no all-or-nothing commitments. Boards engage with Neighbourly the way boards work — staged, scoped, and reversible until you're confident.
Private walkthrough with your tech and member-services leads. We map your existing data flows, review which Neighbourly layers fit your market, and produce a tailored coverage report for your geography.
A written pilot plan with defined scope, timeline, success metrics, and exit terms — built to be circulated through your committees. We work with your governance process, not around it.
A subset of listings, a single market, or a single layer — your call. We integrate, validate, and instrument the pilot with shared dashboards so progress is visible to your board on a weekly cadence.
If the pilot delivers, we expand to your full membership and additional layers on a schedule your board sets. If it doesn't, we exit cleanly — no lock-in, no extracted-data hostage situations.
Source data remains with its source — utility, municipality, census provider. Neighbourly licenses data to your board for use in member-facing tools. Your member-generated data stays yours.
Clean exit terms are written into every engagement. Neighbourly-sourced data is removed; member workflows remain unaffected. No proprietary fields trapped in your schema.
Flat-fee engagements sized to your membership and listing volume. Predictable budget line. Optional layers (e.g., energy) priced as add-ons rather than bundled, so you adopt at your pace.
Not unless you want to. Neighbourly data can flow into your existing listing detail templates, search filters, and CMA tools without UI changes. Or you can use it as the foundation for a refresh — your call.
The geographic hierarchy and address layers cover all of Canada. Permits, environment, and energy roll out by region. We're transparent about gaps — see our coverage page — and prioritize new markets based on partner demand.
Different layers refresh on different cadences — permits often weekly, demographics annually, energy continuously where utility partnerships allow. Every record carries a last-refreshed timestamp.
In most cases, yes. Neighbourly is delivered through standard APIs and RESO-aligned fields. We've worked with self-hosted, vendor-hosted, and hybrid MLS configurations. Where vendor cooperation is needed, we manage the conversation.
Yes — and we encourage it. We provide privacy impact assessment material on request, and the pilot path explicitly accommodates regulator review before broad rollout.
The first step is a private 30-minute walkthrough — not a demo, not a pitch. Bring your tech lead, your member-services lead, or just yourself. We'll show you the platform, answer the specific questions your board will ask, and discuss what a tailored pilot might look like in your market.
