NorthstarMLS Releases MLS Forms Library in ZipForm

CLINTON TOWNSHIP, Mich., Jan. 3, 2007 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- ZipForm(r), the real estate industry's leading brand of forms software, today announced an agreement that will provide REALTOR(r) members who subscribe to NorthstarMLS(tm) the opportunity to receive the MLS forms library at no additional cost when purchased with ZipForm(r). The additional library will allow real estate professionals to conveniently populate listing forms without leaving the ZipForm(r) application. Operated by the Regional Multiple Listing Service of Minnesota, Inc. (RMLS), the NorthstarMLS(tm) system was host to more than $19 billion of real estate transaction volume in 2005. The system serves more than 21,000 REALTORS(r) in Minnesota and western Wisconsin.

The enhancement will add the NorthstarMLS(tm) forms library to the already bundled document package received by the Saint Paul Area Association of REALTORS(r) (SPAAR). The additional library is also accessible upon availability for members of the Minnesota Association of REALTORS(r) (MAR) outside the Saint Paul area who are also NorthstarMLS(tm) subscribers. The addition of the NorthstarMLS(tm) library into SPAAR and MAR, where available, adds another timesaving feature for ZipForm(r) users.

"We are continually striving to give real estate professionals value-added tools that increase their ability to streamline workflow. This new library is an excellent example of our efforts. The NorthstarMLS(tm) forms library will be an asset for these users," said Robert Bailey, chairman of the board of RE FormsNet, the creator of ZipForm(r).
