In Canada, they standardized and built a single website. realtor.ca is, shockingly, a really great user experience when finding a new home.

Ugh. Realtor.ca isn't really due to standardization but monopolization and control. It's a site by CREA (the Canadian Real Estate Assocation) and has exclusive rights to data from all member associations.

Seriously? Damn. Still, great implementation. Hope you can push the bar even higher.
