In mid-December, we shared that the CREB^® Board of Directors had amended some of the CREB^® rules. Some of these amendments resulted from the feedback CREB^® members shared with the Member Practice team, committees and Board of Directors.

In an effort to enhance clarity and provide our members with a clearer understanding of expectations, we are in the process of updating and amending the CREB^® rules effective Jan. 4, 2024. 

As of Jan. 3, 2022, all new listings that are conditionally sold must be reported on the MLS^® System as “Pending.” Listing agents are responsible for updating their listings within two business days to reflect the actual status of the property.

As of April 1, changes are coming to Canada’s Anti-Money Laundering laws, including the removal of temporary COVID-19 measures.

We’re pleased to announce that all 10 Alberta real estate boards and associations have approved new provincial rules for the reporting of pending sales.

Chances are you have encountered a situation where an unknown person contacts you and wants to see a property you have listed.

Whether you represent the buyer or the seller, if you’re dealing with a home built in the last seven years, familiarity with its warranty is essential.

Updated FINTRAC record-keeping requirements will come into effect on June 1, 2021.

We had a lot of member engagement with our April 6 CREB^® Talk article on providing one-day codes. 

When listing a property on the MLS^® System, please remember to verify the title and community information before it goes live.

With the new provincial harmonized rules now in effect, it’s important to follow best practice to protect yourself and your client when managing a conditional sale.

To help promote timely communication between members, a new CREB^® Rule will take effect on Jan. 30 to ensure delivery of the best client experience.
