Executive Summary
ICIWorld.com — A Global Information Listing Service (ILS) for Real Estate Professionals Since 1994
ICIWorld.com is a worldwide real estate networking and marketing platform provided by
The ICIWorld Association of Commercial and Residential Real Estate Brokers and Salespeople.
Established in 1994, ICIWorld was created to help brokers and salespeople network real estate information, connect buyers and sellers, generate leads, and market opportunities globally.
ICIWorld complements MLS systems by filling a major gap in the marketplace:
networking opportunities that cannot yet be placed on MLS because a signed listing agreement may not yet exist or confidentiality is required.
Why ICIWorld Exists
Many real estate opportunities never appear on MLS because:
- Owners may not want a public listing.
- A broker may know of an opportunity but cannot secure a signed listing until a buyer is found.
- Confidentiality may be essential for business, investment, or personal reasons.
- Buyers and investors may want opportunities marketed quietly.
ICIWorld provides a solution by allowing brokers and salespeople to network
“Haves and Wants” in a confidential and professional manner to connect buyers and sellers worldwide.
