SPIN2 to ARLO transition

Tue, 15 Sep 2026 09:34:28 -0600

The Alberta government is transitioning its online land title search services from SPIN2 to ARLO, its new digital land registry system.

Members should be prepared for SPIN2 to be retired by early December, with ARLO becoming the system of record for land title services in Alberta. The land title search services currently available through SPIN2 are already available in ARLO, so members can begin using and familiarizing themselves with the new system now.

Prepare for the transition by setting up ARLO Pro Accounts

ARLO Pro enables a central account administrator to manage users, permissions and account details in one place. Onboarding early will give users time to activate their accounts, invite users and become familiar with the system before the December transition.

Members can also set up their own individual ARLO accounts and pay by credit card for documents as needed.

What you need to know:

• All brokers and associates must have an Alberta.ca account to access ARLO.
• ARLO is available now and can be used immediately.
• Payment options:
o Individual account: Pay by credit card for documents in your cart.
o Account administrator: A brokerage or team administrator can manage users, permissions, billing and account details.

Please note: SPIN2 or ALTA credentials will not work in ARLO. Each user must sign in with an Alberta.ca account. Organizations can link their Land Titles charge account to an ARLO Pro account during onboarding.

Land Titles base fee adjustments effective Oct. 1, 2026

Some fee adjustments include:

	Previous fee	Beginning Oct. 1
Current and historical titles, encumbrances, caveats and condo board searches	$10	$15
Condo plan searches	$2	$5

We encourage CREB^® members to explore ARLO and take advantage of its features to improve efficiency and usability.

For questions or assistance, visit ARLO’s Contact Us page or the Government of Alberta’s Land Titles Modernization Resources page.

ICYMI | Our Journey, Your Why: CREB®-RAE merger exploration update

Tue, 15 Sep 2026 09:29:33 -0600

Thank you to all the members who have volunteered to sit on the 11 CREB^®/REALTORS^® Association of Edmonton (RAE) merger exploration working groups that were announced over the summer.

During the application process, the Joint Merger Steering Committee (JMSC) identified areas in which additional information would help the working groups achieve their objectives, and asked T3 Sixty to do some analysis before the working groups are seated.

We expect this analysis to be completed in October, at which time applicants will be assigned to working groups to begin their explorations.

In the meantime, T3 Sixty’s Katie Shotts will be at RAE’s RAECON on September 16 and at CREB® on September 17, both in-person at CREB^® Campus and online, to present a high-level introduction to T3 Sixty and the merger exploration process. We encourage you to attend one of these sessions.

The role of CREB®'s Board of Directors in the RAE merger exploration

Tue, 15 Sep 2026 08:43:04 -0600

A couple of weeks ago, governance expert Alli Marshall’s CREB^®Talk article “What the heck is ‘good governance’, anyway?” talked about operational versus strategic governing approaches and the roles of boards of directors in each.

With the CREB^®-RAE merger exploration underway, I thought it would be helpful to provide some clarity about the role of your CREB^® Board of Directors in that work and how it fits within the broader member engagement and discovery process.

The board has an important responsibility in this work, but its role is different from those of the Joint Merger Steering Committee (JMSC), the working groups and CREB^® staff.

The JMSC and working groups have been established to undertake the detailed discovery work: gathering information, asking questions, examining opportunities and risks, considering different perspectives and, most importantly, hearing from members. Their work will help develop the information, findings and recommendations that will ultimately be brought forward to the board of directors for consideration.

The board’s role is to listen and remain informed as that work progresses and, when the appropriate information comes before us, to review it thoughtfully and objectively. It is not our role to take positions or make assumptions before the JSMC and working groups have completed their work. Like our members, we are listening and learning as their work progresses. The board will continue asking the necessary strategic, governance and risk-related questions and exercising our judgment in fulfilling our responsibilities to CREB® and its members. That is where the board can add the greatest value to this process.

It is also important to distinguish between the board’s governance role and CREB^®’s communications role. Individual directors are not expected to communicate independently on behalf of the board. As Board Chair, I serve as the spokesperson for the board, while our CEO serves as the spokesperson for the organization, supported by our professional communications team.

Members should therefore expect to hear from different appropriate voices throughout this process. When information or a response comes from our CEO or staff, it should not be interpreted as an absence of board engagement. We are fulfilling our strategic governance responsibilities of listening, staying informed, and considering the perspectives and information brought forward while the exploration is underway.

My role as Board Chair includes communicating on behalf of the board when appropriate, but that does not mean every question or communication can or should require a personal response from the Board Chair. This division of responsibilities allows the board to remain focused on its governance obligations while ensuring the appropriate people are providing information, answering questions and supporting meaningful member engagement.

And there will be many opportunities for members to participate.

The Our Journey, Your Why hub on CREB^®Link will continue to be a central source for updated information and opportunities to ask questions and share perspectives.

The member-led working groups provide another important opportunity for members to contribute directly to the discovery work, with additional opportunities for engagement as the process progresses.

The presentation by T3 Sixty’s Katie Shotts on Sept. 17 is one such opportunity. It is an introduction to the process, not the consultation itself, and I encourage members to attend one of Katie’s in-person or virtual meetings.

We want members to ask questions, challenge assumptions and tell us what matters most to them. That does not mean every question will result in an immediate or new response. Some can be answered today, some have already been addressed through previous posts, communications or the FAQ, and others cannot be answered until the necessary research and exploration work has been completed.

Where a question raises something that needs further consideration, it can still be heard, captured and considered as part of the broader process. Where questions touch ongoing legal matters, there are issues we cannot and will not debate in an online forum. This is to protect CREB^® and our members’ interests.

Most importantly, the outcome of this work has not been predetermined. The purpose of exploration is exactly that: to explore and learn. The exploration may identify a compelling opportunity for CREB^® and RAE to come together in a new structure. It may identify other opportunities that deserve consideration. Or it may confirm that CREB^® is already structured in the best way to serve our members as the industry continues to evolve quickly. We do not know yet, and member input will be an important part of determining where this ultimately leads.

That is also why the Board should allow the exploration and member engagement process to unfold before reaching conclusions. Creating space for members to consider the information, explore the options and provide their perspectives before conclusions are reached is an important part of meaningful engagement

The board’s responsibility is to ensure the process is credible and thorough, appropriate due diligence is undertaken, members have meaningful opportunities to be heard, and to carefully consider the work that is ultimately brought before us.

That is the role your board of directors will continue to play throughout this journey.

Sincerely,

Susanita de Diego
CREB^®Board Chair

Integrity and Passion: Career insights from Lori Olijnyk, Recipient of the 2025 REALTOR® of the Year - T.W.H. (Bill) Saunders Memorial Award

Tue, 15 Sep 2026 08:39:17 -0600

In the latest CREB^®Cast episode, Lori Olijnyk, the 2025 REALTOR^® of the Year Award - T.W.H. (Bill) Saunders Memorial Award recipient, shares lessons from 16 years in real estate and a decade in oil and gas as a surface landman—where relationship-building, trust, and verifiable information were everything.

Lori explains how volunteering (including six years on the CREB^® Board of Directors and five on the Critical Illness Benefit Society) builds connection in a “lonely job,” strengthens the profession as a community, and broadens perspective.

She also recalls the surprise and full-circle moment of receiving the award, offers advice to new REALTORS^®, and previews an accessibility housing focus inspired by her father becoming an amputee.

Supporting the work behind the support

Tue, 15 Sep 2026 08:36:02 -0600

For people accessing support after experiencing domestic violence and abuse, practical resources can be an important part of navigating difficult circumstances and moving toward safety.

On Aug. 28, CREB^® REALTORS^® spent time at FearIsNotLove’s Calgary administration office, helping with the organization’s donation program. The 12 volunteers moved and unpacked boxes, sorted donations and organized resources for clients utilizing program services.

For REALTORS^®, it was an opportunity to contribute in a direct and practical way to an organization supporting people affected by domestic violence and abuse. The work may have happened behind the scenes, but it supported the day-to-day efforts that help FearIsNotLove deliver its programs and services.

The day was another opportunity for CREB^® REALTORS^® to support FearIsNotLove following their involvement earlier this year in completing the organization’s Outdoor Oasis at its Emergency Shelter. That project was supported through a 2025 CREB^®REALTOR^® Community Foundation Transformation Grant.

From helping improve the spaces where community organizations deliver their services to contributing time where it is needed, REALTORS^® can make an impact in different ways.

A big thank you to Julio Florez, Justin Becker, Ram Sund, Rupinder Dhillon, Matthew Theriault, Karen MacPherson, Tiara Falica, Nicoleta Kallo, Sarah Scott, Tej Gill, Jacqueline Davis, and Kendra Varoney for giving their time and helping support FearIsNotLove’s work in the community.

New scam alert targeting CREB® REALTORS®

Tue, 15 Sep 2026 08:32:33 -0600

CREB^® has been made aware of a new scam impersonating REALTORS^® by email.

As part of this scam, social engineers have been sending emails to professionals in the real estate industry that display the name of a legitimate contact, but are sent from an email address other than the contact's. These emails are usually urgent in nature and ask you to click a link, download a file, text a number or take some other action.

You can identify these emails by hovering your mouse cursor over the name that the email is shown as coming from. On a mobile device, tap the name. This will show the address that the email actually came from. It should match the name you hovered over. One such email we were made aware of looked like it came from Alan Tennant, CREB^® President and CEO, but actually came from an illegitimate Gmail account.

“Social engineers are always looking for new ways to execute scams. They combine the use of technology with emotional messaging that expresses a sense of urgency and pressure to act fast in order to manipulate potential victims,” says Douglas Carr, IT Manager at CREB^®.

“We understand that connection and authority triggers trust and that trust triggers action. This can cloud our judgement. If you see a suspicious message, please slow down to verify that it’s the right email or account. When in doubt, reach out to the person the emails are claiming to be from through another communication channel before responding.”

How to protect yourself:

• When you get an email, corroborate that the email address is correct. If in doubt, reach out to the person who contacted you through another communication channel.

• Be cautious of unexpected email invitations with suspicious links, especially if they express a sense of urgency regarding a request.

• Report any suspicious messages, emails or links to the person in your brokerage who manages the email system.

If you clicked on a suspicious link:

• Stop using the device and disconnect it from the internet.

• Do not enter any login credentials. If you have attempted to log in on a malicious site, immediately change your password on the impersonated site and any other sites where you may use the same username and password.

• Contact your IT support technician.

As we work on keeping our members informed about new cyber security risks, we encourage you to stay vigilant and report any similar incidents to support@creb.ca.

Are you ready to lead?

Tue, 08 Sep 2026 09:01:08 -0600

Great leaders don’t always see themselves as leaders right away. Sometimes, it takes someone else recognizing their potential — or an opportunity to see where their skills and experience could make a difference.

CREB^® is looking for members interested in bringing their experience, perspective and leadership to committee and board service.

Maybe that sounds like you. Or maybe someone in your network immediately comes to mind.

CREB^® volunteers bring different experiences and strengths to the table, but some of the qualities we value include:

• Collaborative — Brings people together and elevates perspectives
• Insightful — Turns knowledge and experience into meaningful ideas
• Strategic — Sees the bigger picture and thinks about what’s next
• Resilient — Reflects, adapts and continues to grow

Explore what leadership at CREB^® looks like

Curious about getting involved? Join us for Future Leaders on Sept. 16 at CREB^® Campus.

You’ll join current committee members and Board representatives for an interactive look at volunteer leadership at CREB^®. Hear candid stories and advice from members who’ve already stepped forward, learn what happens at committee and Board tables and explore the different ways you can contribute.

Know someone who would be a great fit? Start a conversation and encourage them to attend. Sometimes, future leaders simply need someone they respect to tell them, “I see it in you.”

Sales and new listings slow in August

Tue, 01 Sep 2026 11:39:50 -0600

Consistent with trends throughout most of 2026, both sales activity and the number of new listings coming onto the market have continued to trend down compared with 2025 levels. In August, sales in Calgary were 1,660 units, down 16 per cent compared with last year, while new listings fell by nearly 10 per cent to 3,141 units.

The pullback in sales has not occurred across all price ranges, as homes priced over $1,000,000 have recorded gains over last year. These gains have mostly been driven by detached and semi-detached homes and are also consistent with where most of the supply growth has occurred.

“While sales growth in the upper end of the market was possible thanks to improved supply choice, it also reflects longer-term confidence in our market, as some buyers are not shying away from taking advantage of the available supply,” said Ann-Marie Lurie, Chief Economist at the Calgary Real Estate Board (CREB^®). “Meanwhile, we have not seen the same pickup in activity in the lower price ranges, as favourable rental conditions are slowing the transition to ownership.”

Inventory levels in August eased compared with the previous month and the same period last year, at 6,509 units. However, given the pullback in sales, the months of supply pushed up to nearly four months. Also consistent with trends throughout this year, conditions vary significantly by property type, with nearly six months of supply for apartment-style homes compared with over three months of supply for lower-density detached homes.

The relatively balanced conditions in the detached and semi-detached sector have prevented any significant shifts in prices compared with the steady price declines occurring in the oversupplied higher-density segments of the market. As of August, the total residential benchmark price was $569,800, similar to the previous month and one per cent lower than 2025 levels.

A day well played

Tue, 01 Sep 2026 09:26:09 -0600

CREB^®’s 2026 Golf Tournament presented by Logel Homes brought 144 golfers to Blue Devil Golf Club on Aug. 25 for a day of competition, costumes, contests and connection!

With blue skies overhead and plenty of sunshine, golfers made their way around Blue Devil taking on sponsor-hosted challenges, cooling off at the Hydration Station, testing their luck at the Margarita Hole and surviving a few friendly jabs at the Heckle Hole. And with the Best Dressed Team Contest in the mix, there was plenty of personality on the course, too.

And while the focus was on having fun and networking, golfers also had a chance to give back to the CREB® REALTOR^® Community Foundation. Together, golfers purchased $1,360 in mulligans and $5,470 in 50/50 raffle tickets, with half of the 50/50 proceeds going to the lucky winner, Jordan Fowler, and the other half supporting the Foundation’s work with local housing and shelter initiatives.

After a full morning on the course, golfers returned to the clubhouse for lunch, awards and a chance to celebrate the day's winners.

A huge thank you to all our sponsors for helping make the day possible and for bringing extra fun to the course through contests, activities, food, drinks and networking opportunities.

We’re grateful to Logel Homes, Sterling Homes, Alberta Blue Cross, MoveBuddy, Minto, West Legal, Kahane Law, Stewart Title Canada, my e-force, YYC Condo Review, BrokerLink, Eager Beaver Moving, BOCC, Chartwell Retirement Residences, RECA, CUTCO, LeClair Thibeault and Prompty for their support of this year’s tournament.

Want to relive more of the day? Check out the CREB^® 2026 Golf Tournament photo album to see more highlights from the tournament.

A special thank you also goes to our golfers, volunteers, CREB^® staff and the team at Blue Devil Golf Club for helping make the tournament such a success.

We had a tee-rific time and can’t wait to do it all again next year!

What the heck is "good governance", anyway?

Tue, 01 Sep 2026 09:13:30 -0600

In a series of articles, we’re discussing What the Heck is Governance. As we do in all areas of our work, we draw on the knowledge and experiences of experts.

We invited governance expert Alli Marshall back to share her thoughts. Alli may be new to the CREB® environment, but this is a Calgarian who has a proven track record supporting non-profits across Canada in effective and strategic governance teamwork, and in strategy, planning and governance for non-profits. For more information and to join her newsletter: www.strix.ca/newsletter

Hello again CREB^® community – thank you for the invitation to return for another "what the heck is governance" chat.

Because heck yes – governance has gotten way too complicated. Governance should be a source of stability and strength for associations. Too often, confusion turns it into a weakness instead.

Last time we talked about the Board's "why": Directors are stewards of CREB^®'s future. They serve so that CREB^® thrives, not just survives.

Thanks to your comments, we also clarified something important: Duty of Loyalty means Directors must act in the best interests of the corporation. Members always matter – but legally, a Director's duty is to CREB^® itself.

Today let's tackle two more words that can be barriers to Boards: "good governance."

"Good governance" sounds great – who wouldn't want that?

But in my research with Directors and CEOs across Canada, "good governance" means something different to everyone. It's so fuzzy that many Directors can't define it – they just know it's the thing their Board is supposed to be doing.

Here's the practical translation: when people say "governance Board" or "good governance Board" today, what they are trying to point to is a Board that seeks to employ a Strategic Governing Approach.

Where most Boards start: Operational Governing Approach

Most not-for-profit Boards begin here. There's no real separation between Board and management – often because there's no management yet. The Board is the organization, doing the day-to-day work (hence the other name "hands on" governance).

Where Boards grow to: Strategic Governing Approach

As organizations mature, the Board needs to shift – to add more value at a higher level, and work through the CEO more efficiently. This is also where Duty of Care kicks in: volunteer/honoraria Directors simply don't have the time or expertise to be in the weeds of daily operations.

So, a Strategic Governing Approach is "nose in/hearts in and hands off." There's clear delegation to the CEO, and the Board keeps its focus on the most material issues relating to strategy, impact, and risk.

The in-between stages

Some Boards sit between these two points. A Transitional Governing Approach shows up mid-transformation towards Strategic Governance. And a Hybrid Governing Approach may be a deliberate choice for resource-limited organizations whose Boards still need to help to do the work.

High-performance governance teamwork begins here

Just as high-performing teams are crystal clear about the game they are playing, high-performing Boards are just as clear about their governing approach.

As fiduciaries, Directors are responsible for the Board's own performance – which means knowing the intended governing approach, knowing why it fits the organization's size and context, and always working to close gaps between aspiration and practice.

In today's complex business environment, a Strategic Governing Approach that is effectively practised is a massive force multiplier. But, as for any high-performing team – it only works when everyone knows – and owns – their lane.

If you have any suggestions for governance topics for this series of article that we should cover, email President & CEO Alan Tennant at alan.tennant@creb.ca.

Relief during a life-changing illness

Mon, 24 Aug 2026 12:58:00 -0600

Recovery from critical illnesses like cancer, stroke and heart disease may come with a significant financial cost that impacts you and those around you. This is why we created the Critical Illness Benefit Society (CIBS).

As the only critical illness benefit for REALTORS^® in North America, CIBS offers a one-time, tax-free benefit of $12,500 to qualified CREB^® members facing hardships associated with medical costs due to a life-changing illness.

Payment is delivered to qualifying members several working days after a claim is approved.

To date, CIBS has supported over 385 CREB^® members, providing more than $4.2 million in critical need benefits.

Please note: Members have a maximum of two years from the date of diagnosis to submit a claim.

Know that in times of need, we’re here for you. Click here to learn more about CIBS and how to make a claim.

Building community, one wall at a time

Mon, 24 Aug 2026 12:56:50 -0600

A wall going up may look like a small step in the construction of a home. For the family who will eventually live there, it represents something much bigger: a safe and affordable place to call home.

On Aug. 18, 14 CREB^® members spent the day in Chestermere helping Habitat for Humanity Southern Alberta build that future.

Working alongside Habitat’s construction team, volunteers contributed to a range of construction tasks, including framing, drywall installation and general construction. Habitat staff provided training and guidance throughout the day, giving volunteers the opportunity to put new skills to work while contributing to the build.

While the work was hands-on, the impact reaches beyond the construction site. Every task completed brings the home one step closer to being ready for a local family — and gives CREB^® members a tangible way to support access to safe, affordable housing in the community.

A big thank you to Roberto Argenal, Sharon Shepherd, Jennifer Lapierre, Tim J. Walsh, Rob Jamieson, Krystian Sarna, Treena McMahon, Carson Harris, Jacinta Sargeant, Rubena Jessa, Valerie Richards, Clara Phuong Nguyen, Horace Rowe and Kendra Varoney for giving their time and helping build a stronger community.

Future leaders: We see it. Do you?

Tue, 18 Aug 2026 11:25:00 -0600

Maybe you’re the person who brings people together and elevates different perspectives. Perhaps you draw on your experience to contribute meaningful ideas, naturally see the bigger picture or are always looking for opportunities to learn and grow.

If those leadership qualities describe you, others have definitely seen your potential. The question is, have you?

Future Leaders is your opportunity to find out how to recognize and put your leadership potential to use at CREB^®.

Join us for Future Leaders on Sept. 16 for an interactive look at volunteer leadership at CREB^® and an opportunity to explore where your strengths and experience could make a difference.

Connect with current committee members and board representatives, hear about their experiences and get an inside look at what happens at CREB^®’s committee and board tables. You’ll also learn more about the qualities CREB^® is looking for in future volunteer leaders and the different ways you can get involved.

A meal, a little comfort and helping hands

Tue, 18 Aug 2026 08:46:20 -0600

For families staying at Calgary Ronald McDonald House while their child receives medical care, having a home-cooked meal can be one less thing to worry about.

On Aug. 13, CREB^® Board members, REALTORS^® and staff spent the afternoon at Ronald McDonald House Alberta, helping prepare and serve dinner for families staying at the House.

Working alongside the House’s kitchen team, volunteers cooked, served dinner, cleaned up and packaged leftovers through the Home for Dinner program. By taking care of dinner, volunteers were able to give families one less thing to manage while they focus on caring for their child.

As a special addition to the volunteer day, volunteers presented Ronald McDonald House Alberta with a one-time $1,000 donation through the CREB^® REALTOR^®Community Foundation to support the Home for Dinner program.

Powered by CREB^® REALTORS^®, the Foundation invests in housing and shelter-related solutions across Calgary and surrounding communities. Ronald McDonald House Alberta was a Legacy Grant recipient from 2022 to 2024, building on a longstanding connection between the Foundation and the organization.

A big thank you to Christian Twomey, Julie Bowser, Alan Tennant, Shelagh Krause, Murray Scotton, Jennifer Thacker, Valerie Richards, Valerie Konechny and Kendra Varoney for volunteering their time and helping make the House feel a little more like home.

Thank you to the many members who have contributed to our ongoing work to elevate REALTOR^® professionalism. Your feedback continues to shape our initiatives and supports CREB^®'s 2026–2030 Strategic Plan goal of elevating REALTOR^® professionalism.

What we've been working on

Over the past several months, CREB^® has continued to advance several professionalism-focused initiatives aligned with the Learnings from CREB^®’s Professionalism Summit, including:

• A comprehensive redesign of the CREB^® Broker Orientation program, informed by member surveys and broker engagement.

• Ongoing monitoring and refinement of the expanded New Member Orientation program launched in October 2025, with the first cohort set to complete the full one-year learning pathway this fall.

• REALTOR^® brand engagement work, including a member micro-summit and consumer research exploring brand awareness, perceptions of REALTORS^®, professionalism and consumer trust. Together, these initiatives are providing valuable insight into how consumers perceive REALTORS^®, what builds trust and where opportunities exist to strengthen the REALTOR^® value proposition. All of the findings—and what they mean for members—will be available soon.

• Collaboration with CREA, GVR, AREF and other organized real estate partners to share ideas, research and best practices related to professionalism.

What's next

We remain committed to listening to members and gathering insight on the issues that matter most.

Join us on Sept. 25 for our next Professionalism Summit, where we'll take a deeper dive into key topics, including:

• The role of ongoing professional development: What ongoing learning, training and professional development opportunities would provide the greatest value to members and support long-term professionalism.

• The intersection of brand and professionalism: How professionalism can strengthen public trust and reinforce the REALTOR® value proposition in the eyes of consumers.

• Professionalism, complaints and recognition programs: What accountability and recognition programs could look like and the value they may provide to members.

Supporting the next generation through education

Tue, 11 Aug 2026 08:35:05 -0600

Supporting education is one of the many ways REALTORS^® in Calgary and the surrounding area invest in the future of our industry and our communities.

Through a range of scholarships and endowment funds, CREB^® and the CREB^® REALTOR^® Community Foundation support students pursuing post-secondary education, developing leadership skills and preparing for careers that will shape the future of real estate and housing.

Three University of Calgary students are among the latest recipients of CREB^®-supported scholarships and awards. Each received the 2025–2026 CREB^®Graduate Scholarship in Real Estate, valued at $5,000, to support their Master of Business Administration studies at the Haskayne School of Business.

Colin McCann

After being laid off, Colin McCann enrolled in an MBA to reskill and re-enter the workforce. He says the scholarship was instrumental in helping him balance tuition, housing costs and supporting his family while completing his degree.

"The financial support I received was quite literally essential to be able to pay for the degree while also paying for housing and putting my kids through school. I would not have been able to do without it."

Today, Colin is on track to complete his MBA while gaining experience through part-time work in his chosen industry.

Chioma Agbanusi

With a background in science, Chioma Agbanusi is using her MBA to transition into commercial real estate, where she hopes to contribute to housing affordability and sustainable urban growth.

The scholarship allowed her to participate in leadership opportunities beyond the classroom, including executive coaching and professional development through the Haskayne Leadership Lab.

"As I embark on my career in commercial real estate, I hope to create meaningful and lasting value for communities like Calgary."

Liz Rudiger

Liz Rudiger has worked in Calgary's real estate industry for the past decade and is completing her MBA while working full time.

She says the scholarship has helped make that journey possible while exposing her to new areas of the industry.

"My courses have introduced me to the world of commercial real estate, which has been an exciting new perspective. It has also reinforced how meaningful it is to see organizations supporting and encouraging women pursuing careers in real estate."

Supporting tomorrow's leaders

The University of Calgary also recognized Matt Comfort as the recipient of the Calgary Housing Commission Graduate Prize, another award supported through CREB^®'s commitment to education.

The CREB^®Graduate Scholarship in Real Estate is one of several scholarships, awards and endowment funds supported by CREB^® and the CREB^® REALTOR^® Community Foundation. Together, these programs help reduce financial barriers for students while supporting the future of real estate in our region.

Congratulations to this year's recipients, and best wishes as they continue their academic and professional journeys!

Repeal of blanket rezoning: Zoning changes in effect Aug. 4, 2026

Tue, 11 Aug 2026 08:34:00 -0600

On April 8, 2026, Calgary city council approved a repeal of blanket rezoning. Zoning changes came into effect on Aug. 4, 2026.

How this may affect your listings

One of the approved recommendations include changing the zoning of parcels back to their state prior to Aug. 6, 2024. As a result, any properties that were rezoned in 2024 and have not applied or been approved for an R-CG, R-G or H-GO development reverted back to their previous land use district.

Verify your listings

New, recently listed or active properties on the MLS^® System that were listed before the zoning changes took effect may display outdated or incorrect zoning information.

To determine whether your listings have been affected, use the City of Calgary’s Find Your Land Use tool to verify the current zoning and update the listing’s zoning field as needed.

Please note: The zoning information that auto-populates when entering a listing may not yet reflect the updated land use district. We strongly encourage members to use this tool to verify a property’s current zoning.

CREB^® has confirmed that Pillar 9™ and the City of Calgary are working together to update the new zoning information in REMapList™ as quickly as possible.

To learn more, visit the Repeal of Citywide Rezoning webpage.

New scam targeting REALTORS®

Mon, 10 Aug 2026 15:44:00 -0600

Members have reported being impersonated in networking apps. As part of the scam, social engineers are using their names to bait other CREB^® members to accept an invitation for leads, stating they work for an organization within organized real estate.

Please be careful and do not accept any of these invitations, especially if their titles are wrong. These are likely malicious attempts to compromise your device.

How to protect yourself:

• Verify the identity of anyone requesting to connect with you through apps like Alignable either by checking the member’s official REALTOR.ca or social media profiles or by reaching out

• Be cautious of unexpected email invitations with suspicious links

• Report any suspicious messages, emails or links to CREB^®

If you clicked on a suspicious link:

• Stop using the device and disconnect it from the internet

• Do not enter any login credentials

• Contact your IT support technician

Please stay vigilant and let us know of any similar incidents at support@creb.ca. This way, we can keep our members informed about new cyber security risks as they appear.

Price declines driven mostly by apartment condominiums

Tue, 04 Aug 2026 14:37:00 -0600

As we move into the second half of the year, it is not a surprise to see slower market activity. In July, both sales and new listings eased over June levels, declining to 1,904 sales and 3,323 new listings.

Sales were nine per cent lower than last year’s levels, while new listings were 15 per cent lower. The adjustment in both sales and new listings caused little change in the sales-to-new-listings ratio, which sat at 57 per cent.

In July, the unadjusted total residential benchmark price was $569,200, down slightly over June and two per cent lower than levels reported last year. The persistent oversupply of apartment condos is contributing to a steeper price decline of over eight per cent. Meanwhile, at the other end of the spectrum, detached prices have eased by under two per cent compared to last year, mostly driven by adjustments in the North East and North Districts.

“Several consecutive years of high construction levels and the sudden drop in mostly international migration have contributed to the shift in housing market conditions mostly for higher-density homes, a transition that started in the second half of last year,” said Ann-Marie Lurie, Chief Economist at the Calgary Real Estate Board (CREB^®). “While new home construction is slowing, there are over 17,000 apartment-style units under construction. This continues to weigh on rental and higher-density properties, driving price adjustments.”

While demand has slowed this year, levels remain stronger than those reported during the challenging market conditions experienced from 2015 to 2019. What has shifted significantly is the additional supply choice across the housing spectrum. Total resale inventory levels remained relatively stable compared to both June and July 2025. However, the slower July sales pushed the months of supply up to three and a half months. While the months of supply is rising across all property types, conditions remain mostly balanced in the detached and semi-detached sectors. In the higher-density sectors, the market continues to favour the buyer for apartment-style homes with nearly five months of supply, while row is experiencing some signs of oversupply.

Mid-year Member Practice update

Tue, 04 Aug 2026 11:47:00 -0600

As part of CREB^®’s ongoing commitment to elevating our industry and enhancing public confidence in REALTORS^®, the Member Practice team works diligently behind the scenes to support compliance and uphold the integrity of the MLS^® System.

While Educational Advisories and fines are tools available to us when necessary, our role extends far beyond enforcement. We are committed to educating and advising members on practice standards, protecting the accuracy and integrity of MLS^® listing data through audits and compliance reviews, and being available to answer questions and provide guidance on practice and compliance.

Summary offences

If a listing or activity doesn't align with CREB^® Rules, the Member Practice team may issue a summary offence notice. For summary offences, a member's first offence is addressed through an Educational Advisory, while repetitive or unresolved issues may result in a second, third or subsequent notices.

From Jan. 1 to July 15, 2026, we issued:

• 1,007 Educational Advisories
• 105 second offences
• 18 third offences
• 2 fourth offences
• 3 fifth offences

The three most common MLS^® rule violations were:

1. Virtual enhancement of photos: Remember, virtual staging is permitted, but virtual enhancement is not. Read Virtual staging vs. virtual enhancement: How to avoid misrepresenting a property.

2. Residential Measurement Standard (RMS) reporting: The most common RMS-related issues on the MLS^® System are incomplete fields and simple data entry errors in the measurement fields. Take a few extra moments to review your listing for accuracy before publishing. Visit RECA's RMS webpage for guidance on accurately reporting property sizes, answers to FAQs and information on how measurements are determined.

3. Incorrect property location information: Correct location details help match MLS^® listings with buyer search criteria. This includes

Incorrect LINC numbers: Double check the title to ensure the LINC on the listing matches
Using a temporary LINC when a permanent one exists: Temporary LINC numbers are only suitable in specific situations. For example, subdivisions submitted to the land titles office and in the process of title assignments.
Entering an incorrect property address: This is more common if the property is entered on the listing as being inside city/town limits. For example, listing the property in Airdrie when it’s actually in Rural Rockyview County.
Incorrectly mapping a property: Review the Listing Location in OnePlatform tutorial to learn more about how to correctly pin a property.

Our intention when issuing summary offence notices is first and foremost to educate. That’s why a member’s first offence is addressed through an Educational Advisory, which does not carry a fine. This approach reflects our commitment to supporting member success, promoting professional standards and maintaining the integrity of the shared MLS^® System.

One of the best ways to avoid a summary offence is to check your listing using the REListCheck™ tool. If you receive an email that is raising a potential concern about one of your listings, you can proactively correct the listing before Member Practice becomes involved. Learn more about the REListCheck™ tool here.

Formal complaints

Some offences under CREB^® Rules and The REALTOR^® Code fall outside the summary offence process and are handled as formal complaints.

Member Practice facilitates member-to-member, CREB^®-to-member and public-to-member complaints, as well as show-cause hearings. So far in 2026, we’re hearing an influx of concerns about entering a property without permission and conduct unbecoming. As a reminder, members can only access a property with permission.

If you're running late for a showing, don’t assume you can show the property outside the approved showing time, even if it’s just a little bit late - instead contact the listing agent to reschedule.

Have a pre-possession walk through clause for your buyer? Make sure to arrange access to the property through the listing agent before showing up or going in.

If you have questions about compliance or practice matters, contact the Member Practice team at advice@creb.ca.

Strategic Plan updated to reinforce REALTOR® professionalism

Mon, 27 Jul 2026 15:23:36 -0600

As part of the ongoing implementation of CREB^®'s 2026–2030 Strategic Plan, the CREB^® Board of Directors has approved two mid-year updates to the Strategic Plan and Framework.

The changes reflect insights gathered through member engagement, industry outreach and other work undertaken to advance the strategic plan.

The plan updates are:

• The strategic goal Elevate the REALTOR^®profession is now Elevate REALTOR^® Professionalism.

• The strategic objective Promote the CREB^® REALTOR^® brand as the leading consumer option is now Reinforce the CREB^® REALTOR^® as the leading consumer option.

While the strategic direction remains unchanged, these updates sharpen the plan's focus on CREB^®'s mission of providing members with the services they need to deliver an exceptional real estate experience while strengthening the value of the REALTOR^® brand.

The updated Strategic Plan and Framework are now available on CREB^®Link.

Office closure: Monday, August 3

Mon, 27 Jul 2026 15:22:00 -0600

CREB^® will be closed on Monday, Aug. 3 for the Heritage Day statutory holiday. The CREB^® Member Support Centre will remain open on Saturday, Aug. 1 from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., but will be closed on Monday.

Regular hours will resume on Tuesday, Aug. 4.

ICYMI: Help lead the merger discussions with RAE: Join a member-led working group

Mon, 27 Jul 2026 14:56:00 -0600

In May we announced that CREB^® and the REALTORS^® Association of Edmonton (RAE) had agreed to explore whether a merger of the two organizations would benefit our members. This message is to let you know that we have engaged a consultant, T3 Sixty, to guide us through this exploration.

Whether to merge or not will truly be a member-driven decision right from the start, and we are now recruiting CREB^® members to join working groups that will explore the pros and cons of merging in various areas of our business.

If you’re interested in participating in one of the working groups, keep reading.

Organized real estate is reorganizing

Before diving into what’s happening, we’d like to talk about why the discussion with RAE is happening. Organized real estate is reorganizing. In 2024, local boards in New Brunswick amalgamated into a single board, New Brunswick REALTORS^®. In 2019, a number of local boards in Quebec merged to form QPAREB, which now represents 92% of brokers in the province. This year in Alberta, RASCA members voted to dissolve and become part of AREA.

The real estate market is also shifting in real time. Technology has put more data, and more “intelligence,” than ever at the fingertips of consumers. Brokerage business models are diverging. Amid all this, the number of REALTORS^® and the cost of doing business are increasing faster than the number of sales.

All of these changes directly affect your business. The discussion with RAE is an opportunity to explore one option to start driving that change rather than just reacting to it. That's why we accepted the invitation from RAE to talk. This is a journey that everyone at CREB^® is on together to find out why merging is either the right change for our members, or why it is not. We’re calling this exploration Our Journey, Your Why.

Working groups

Each of 11 working groups will focus on one specific business domain, and will include members from both CREB^® and RAE. When they finish their work in January of 2027, the working groups will report what they found to a Joint Merger Steering Committee (JMSC) comprised of CREB^® and RAE Board Chairs, a director from each board, both organizations’ CEOs, and two experienced volunteer members from each organization.

If the working groups determine that, overall, the value of a merger to members outweighs the risks, the JMSC will work with T3 Sixty to develop a merger proposal and recommend each board put the decision to a member vote in Spring of 2027.

You can find a full list of the 11 working groups on the Our Journey, Your Why hub on CREB^®Link.

CALL FOR VOLUNTEERS

Both RAE and CREB^® have strong volunteer cultures, and we are excited to jointly invite members to roll up their sleeves and join the working groups. T3 Sixty has set up an application survey that will help us ensure the right talents and skills are matched with each volunteer role.

By contributing your expertise and vision to a working group, you’ll have an important voice in discussions about Governance & Bylaws, Member Services & Value Proposition, Education & Professional Development, and more.

COMPLETE THE WORKING GROUP APPLICATION FORM HERE

The working groups will begin meeting in August and wrap up their work in January 2027. The deadline to complete your application survey is August 4, 2026.

Find out more about the merger exploration

We have created the Our Journey, Your Why hub on CREB^®Link to provide a single source of information for members. Here, you’ll be able to learn more about the working groups, the Joint Merger Steering Committee, FAQs and more.

If you have any questions, please reach out to CREB^® President and CEO Alan Tennant using the Ask a Question tab in the Our Journey, Your Why hub.

“This is an exciting time to be a REALTOR^® and a member of CREB^®. The discussion with RAE is the first step in the journey of determining the best path forward for our members and our organizations as our industry evolves including whether a potential merger should be put before the members for consideration.”

- Susanita de Diego, CREB^® Chair.

Putting member feedback into practice

Tue, 21 Jul 2026 08:45:00 -0600

We don't just collect feedback; we use it. The CREB^® Member Satisfaction Survey gave members an opportunity to tell us what's working, what could be improved and where we should focus our efforts.

Framework Analytics analyzed the survey results and shared highlights with members in June. The results showed overall member satisfaction has reached 77 per cent. These results show positive momentum, and we remain committed to building on that progress through ongoing member feedback and continuous improvement.

Although the survey showed meaningful gains across many areas, it also identified several priorities where members would like to see continued focus and improvement:

Practice & Enforcement
Training & Education
Government Relations

These focus areas will help guide CREB^®'s operational strategies and decision-making with the goal of delivering greater value and an improved member experience.

Tue, 21 Jul 2026 08:22:46 -0600

Support local families through Habitat Build Days

Tue, 21 Jul 2026 08:21:00 -0600

Hail resilience: Helping clients make informed homebuying decisions

Tue, 14 Jul 2026 09:29:00 -0600

As Calgary continues to experience more frequent and severe weather events, hail is becoming an increasingly important consideration for homeowners.

The City of Calgary reported that hailstorms caused approximately $3.3 billion in damage to private residential properties in Calgary between 2020 and 2025 alone.

Read the City’s Understanding hail risk and home resilience in Calgary briefing.

While location is one factor, a home's resilience often comes down to the materials and features that help protect it from severe weather. As trusted advisors, REALTORS^® can help buyers understand the materials and features that may help a home stand up against severe weather conditions.

Understanding hail risk

Calgary sits within one of Canada's most hail-prone regions, with the highest risk typically occurring between June and September. The amount of damage a property experiences can vary depending on factors such as:

• the storm's path and intensity
• roofing and siding materials
• window construction
• surrounding trees and landscape
• the age and condition of exterior finishes

Helping clients understand these factors can lead to more informed purchasing decisions and fewer unexpected costs after possession.

Looking beyond curb appeal

When comparing homes, buyers often focus on layout, finishes and location. Encouraging them to also consider a home's durability can provide a new perspective based on the property's long-term value.

Features that may improve a home's resilience include:

• impact-resistant roofing materials
• durable siding
• protective window features
• well-maintained exterior finishes

These features may help reduce repair costs, extend the life of building materials and better protect a home's value over time.

Insurance is part of the conversation

Insurance coverage is also evolving as weather-related claims increase. According to The City of Calgary, home insurance premiums and deductibles have continued to rise, and some insurers have reduced or limited hail coverage in certain areas.

While REALTORS^® should avoid providing insurance advice, encouraging buyers to speak with their insurer before purchasing can help them better understand:

• what hail damage is covered
• whether roof replacement is based on replacement cost or depreciation
• coverage limits and deductibles
• whether temporary living expenses are included if the home becomes uninhabitable
• whether discounts are available for impact-resistant building materials

Having these conversations early can help clients avoid surprises after they move in.

Helping clients prepare for homeownership

Buying a home in Calgary means understanding the realities of living in a city where hail is a recurring risk. By encouraging buyers to consider roofing, siding, windows, gutters and insurance coverage alongside price and aesthetics, REALTORS^® can help their clients to make more informed decisions and better prepare for the long-term costs of homeownership.

From showings to offers: Understanding your obligation to buyers

Tue, 14 Jul 2026 08:57:00 -0600

For many buyers, showings are where critical decisions begin to take shape—what they love, what they question and what risks they may not yet recognize.

It is also where a real estate agent's expertise can be especially valuable. When a real estate agent only becomes involved at the offer stage, can they still provide competent service and fulfill their fiduciary obligations to their client?

To answer that question, let's consider the expectations set out in the REALTOR^® Code, the Real Estate Act Rules, and the CREB^® Rules.

REALTOR^®Code Article 12, Skilled and Conscientious Service: A REALTOR^® shall render a skilled and conscientious service, in conformity with standards of competence which are reasonably expected in the specific real estate disciplines in which the REALTOR^® engages. When a REALTOR^® is unable to render such service, either alone or with the aid of other professionals, the REALTOR^® shall not accept the assignment or otherwise provide assistance in connection with the transaction.

Writing an offer without having seen the property raises critical questions:

• How can a real estate agent accurately advise on pricing strategy or assess property value without seeing it?

• How can they identify potential risks, deficiencies or red flags?
• How can they tailor conditions, such as financing or home inspection, to the specific property?

Without firsthand knowledge of the property, or a reliable and thorough understanding of it before helping buyers prepare an offer, the service may be unable to meet the standard of care set out in the REALTOR^® Code.

The Real Estate Act Rules, Part 2, Division 1, Section 41(b) and (d) states:

Licensees must:

(b) provide competent service;

(d) fulfill their fiduciary obligations to their clients

Providing competent service and acting in the client's best interests requires more than facilitating paperwork. It requires informed advice and appropriate due diligence.

When a real estate agent has limited or no knowledge of a property, it becomes difficult to demonstrate that these obligations have been met.

CREB^®Rule Part II, Section 4.03 states: Excluding show homes or open houses, Members shall not suggest to a Buyer that they view properties with other Members with the intention or instruction to the Buyer to return to the first Brokerage Representative to write an offer on a subject property.

CREB^® Rule Part II, Section 4.03 supports the expectations set out in the REALTOR^® Code and the Real Estate Act Rules by reinforcing the importance of continuity in buyer representation. Members who remain actively involved throughout the buying process are better equipped to provide informed advice and meet the standard of care expected of them.

Ultimately, competent representation begins long before an offer is written. Showings are more than an opportunity to view a property—they are an important part of delivering competent representation. Active involvement throughout the buying process helps ensure real estate agents can meet their professional, ethical and fiduciary obligations.

Governance update: Strengthening leadership development and oversight

Mon, 13 Jul 2026 14:17:00 -0600

Strong governance helps ensure CREB^® continues to make thoughtful, strategic decisions on behalf of members. CREB^®’s Governance Manual is posted on the Governance Excellence tab on CREB^®Link and it explains our governance framework; which involves people, processes and the structures that establish how that is to occur.

At its June 17 meeting, the board of directors approved updates to CREB^®’s Governance Manual to strengthen leadership development, enhance oversight and support long-term organizational readiness.

In particular, the focus is on maintaining qualified and capable directors: individuals that possess the requisite skills, experience, capacity and aptitude to fulfill the expectations of the important role they occupy.

Over the past several years, the CREB^® Board of Directors has evolved their oversight of director training and skill growth with the creation of a sub-committee of the board; the Director Development Advisory Group (DDAG). These updates to policy transition the DDAG into the new Leadership Success Advisory Group (LSAG).

It was through our investment in director development continuous improvements that these improvements were studied and can be implemented. The updated structure follows the model of other organizations by creating something similar to a human resources committee of the board that is focused strictly on the board of directors and their one employee, the President & CEO.

This change brings director development and President & CEO oversight into one integrated structure, creating a more coordinated approach to leadership planning, development and accountability.

Under this updated structure, the Board will be better positioned to:

• Align leadership development with CREB^®’s strategic priorities
• Strengthen President & CEO oversight, including performance, professional development, and succession planning
• Enhance director onboarding, training and ongoing development

According to CREB^® Chair-Elect Matt McBean, who serves as chair of LSAG:

“Together, these updates reflect governance best practices and support a more consistent approach to leadership development, planning and oversight. We already have robust performance, development and succession planning process in place with our President & CEO, but this change makes more efficient use of our resources.”

Related policy updates will continue as this work progresses to ensure CREB^®’s governance documents remain aligned with the new LSAG structure. These updates will help keep responsibilities, processes and decision-making practices clear, current and consistent, while supporting transparency and accountability on behalf of members.

As Chair-Elect McBean summarizes; “our 2025 Annual Report to members included two full pages of reporting on our investment in director development; an important recap of our commitment to this dimension of good governance”.

New REMapList™ feature helps identify CEIP Properties

Tue, 07 Jul 2026 10:10:00 -0600

The Clean Energy Improvement Program (CEIP) is a financing program run by Alberta Municipalities that loans residential property owners up to $50,000 of the upfront costs of energy-efficiency and renewable energy upgrades.

Participants repay the loan over time through their property tax bill, as per their Clean Energy Improvement Agreement. The financing is tied to the property—not the owner—and may be transferred to a new owner if the property is sold.

Knowing where to look for this information will help you prepare your client for a smooth transition.

Check whether a property has participated in CEIP using one of the methods below.

1. Use the new REMapList™ feature that allows users to determine whether a property is participating in the Clean Energy Improvement Program (CEIP), as shown here:

2. Contact the City of Calgary at ceip@calgary.ca to determine whether a CEIP loan is attached to a property before listing or writing an offer.

For more information, visit the Resources section of the City’s Clean Energy Improvement Program (CEIP) webpage, where you'll find the Selling or Buying a Property with a Clean Energy Improvement Tax info sheet and other helpful resources.

Read the May 4, 2026 CREB^®Talk article to learn more about CEIP and understand the financial obligations that may be associated with a participating property.

High-density supply impacts apartment condominium prices

Thu, 02 Jul 2026 10:58:18 -0600

June sales in Calgary improved over May, reaching 2,197 units. Despite the monthly gains, sales were nearly four per cent lower than last year and just below the long-term average for June, largely due to pullbacks in apartment-style units. While sales are down across most price ranges so far this year, there have been gains in both the highest price ranges and the most affordable ranges across most property types.

“The easing of demand for resale homes does not come as a surprise given the recent decline in migration, which is impacting both rental and ownership demand for higher-density homes. The bigger change in our market relates to inventory, which has been on the rise in the rental, resale and new-home markets following several consecutive years of record-high housing starts,” said Ann-Marie Lurie, Chief Economist at the Calgary Real Estate Board (CREB^®). “Inventory growth has mostly occurred in high-density homes, resulting in buyer’s market conditions and steep price adjustments for condominium apartments. While it will take time to absorb the high-density supply, detached supply growth has been limited and some districts are reporting record-high prices.”

New listings are starting to pull back compared with 2025 and the sales-to-new-listings ratio rose to 56 per cent. This has slowed the pace of inventory growth in the market and kept the months of supply at just over three months. This is considered a balanced range in the city, but conditions vary across property types, as the apartment condominium sector is experiencing buyer’s market conditions, with the months of supply at nearly five months and a sales-to-new-listings ratio of 45 per cent.

The range of conditions is also impacting prices. In June, the unadjusted benchmark price was $572,500, up over the previous month and two per cent below levels reported last June. However, apartment-style properties have reported an annual decline nearing nine per cent, leaving condominium prices in June at $299,000. Meanwhile, the benchmark price for a detached home rose over the previous month, reaching $750,500, one per cent below last year’s level, with most of the adjustments driven by specific pockets of the market.

A refresher for members: CREB® dispute resolution process

Tue, 30 Jun 2026 10:02:00 -0600

Maintaining professionalism and trust is foundational to the real estate industry. When challenges arise between members, CREB^® provides a structured dispute resolution process designed to ensure concerns are addressed fairly, transparently and in accordance with established rules.

This article offers a refresher on what members need to know about the process.

Start at the brokerage level

Before initiating a formal complaint, members are expected to make every reasonable effort to resolve issues at the brokerage level. This step reflects the profession’s commitment to collaboration and accountability.

• Involve brokers early in the process.
• Document all attempts at resolution, ideally in writing.

When a formal complaint is necessary

If a satisfactory resolution cannot be reached, members may proceed with filing a formal complaint.

When submitting a formal complaint, members should:

• File within one year of the incident or of becoming aware of the issue.
• Provide a detailed, chronological account of events.
• Include references to any relevant CREB^® Rules, Bylaws, or the REALTOR^® Code, if known.
• Attach supporting documentation.
• Provide a letter of support from their broker.

Members should also be aware that complaint details and the identity of the complainant are shared with the other party to ensure transparency throughout the process.

Members are encouraged to consult the Administrative Justice Guides for a detailed overview of the dispute resolution process. Additional information is available under Dispute Resolution on CREB^®Link.

For questions or guidance, members are encouraged to contact Member Practice at creb.adminjustice@creb.ca.

Tell us how you want CREB® to communicate with you and we'll buy you coffee

Tue, 30 Jun 2026 08:52:15 -0600

Starting the week of June 15, randomly selected CREB^® members began receiving an email with a link to a survey that asks questions about CREB^®’s member communications and how you would like CREB^®to communicate with you.

Be one of the first 500 respondents and we'll buy you coffee and a snack with a $10 gift card!

In return for your time, the first 500 members to complete the survey will receive $10 gift cards, and everyone who completes the survey will be entered in a draw to win one of five $200 gift certificates.

Your feedback is needed and appreciated

As CREB^®’s membership has grown over the past few years, our membership has become more diverse and the world of member communication has evolved. This survey will help us determine:

• Which of our communication channels are most effective
• What new channels members would like us to use
• What type of information members would like to receive
• What type of events members would like to attend

Thank you!

Thank you in advance for your honest and thoughtful insight! We look forward to sharing results and incorporating them into our member communications.
