Indianapolis, IN - April 28, 2026 - The Broker Listing Cooperative® (BLC®) is partnering with Gitcha to bring The Buyer Listing Service® into the BLC®, creating new opportunities for nearly 10,000 subscribers across central Indiana. By bringing buyer demand into one trusted marketplace, the partnership helps move collaboration beyond informal channels like private groups and personal networks into a more consistent, inclusive, and transparent environment. Together, the partnership introduces a new approach that strengthens buyer representation, improves cooperation among agents, and activates the buyer side of the marketplace within the BLC®.

Strengthening Both Sides of the Marketplace

"The BLC® must continue to evolve by deliberately strengthening the marketplace we are entrusted to facilitate. When both sides of the marketplace are visible, cooperative, and respected, the entire industry moves forward together."

Shelley Specchio, President and CEO of the Broker Listing Cooperative®

The integration is expected to provide members with a clearer picture of real-time buyer demand, including preferred features, locations, budgets, and financing timelines. Centralizing buyer interest in an integrated platform will help create a more reciprocal marketplace, giving members broader visibility into emerging opportunities.

Leading the Way for MLSs Nationwide

"The BLC® was an early visionary in recognizing how the MLS industry can support the agent community with better cooperation and insights by strengthening buyer representation. They helped shape the platform, and they are leading the way for MLSs nationwide."

Dan Cooper, CEO of Gitcha

The additional demand data will help agents serve clients and provide insights for affiliates, investors, builders, and community leaders seeking to align development, investment, and planning decisions with market needs. The organizations said the initiative is intended to support a more transparent and collaborative real estate marketplace.

About Gitcha

Gitcha is a demand-based real estate platform with products designed to give buyer agents visibility similar to that of listing agents. Its Buyer Listing Service® allows agents to enter buyer needs within an MLS-licensed environment and connect with other agents who may have access to matching properties. Agents can also syndicate buyer criteria for display on Gitcha's public platform, where the demand information can be searched and shared.

About The Buyer Listing Service

The Buyer Listing Service is an industry-first tool that enables agents to proactively share their clients' specific needs with each other - transparency that assists in driving suitable inventory to the market and allows the MLS to cross-pollinate buyer demand and available supply in their active environment. The result is a new listing segment for the MLS that helps their agent community deliver optimized outcomes to their customers.

The Buyer Listing Service works in concert with the first-of-its-kind public platform Gitcha, a public display portal where licensed agents' Want-Listings are displayed, creating a transparent, searchable, and shareable demand marketplace for buyers' specific criteria.
