  • Acknowledgements
    Acknowledgements The history of the Vancouver Island Real Estate Board (VIREB) reveals a dynamic account of professionalism, the unifying effort of many, and the motivation that drove the Board from its first day in 1951 through modernity. This narration endeavours to offer an objective viewpoint that unites documentation and individual recollection to tell the inspiring chronicle of the men and women who have joined forces in order to work towards a higher aim, a common vision. The history of VIREB reveals a philosophy of professionalism; its story is paralleled by the earned expertise of the real estate industry as a whole. It is with gratitude that the author recog- nizes those who were interviewed for the history as representatives of the evolving eras of the Board: Allan Armstrong, Pat Moore, Lloyd Wood, Reg Eaton, Ralph Walker, Bob Clarke, Gordon Blackhall, Jack Geisler, Dermot Murphy, Rick Evans (reflecting upon his Father Jack’s contribu- tion), Marty Douglas, Randy Forbes, and Donn Gardner. Their vast knowledge, strategic sense, and commitment to the industry are legendary and the history was not only told, but made with their help. While these Members and Associates have been instrumental in telling the story of the Board’s history they are not alone, countless Members stand equal in knowledge and commit- ment, and their actions are clearly recorded within the sixty years of Board Minutes. Above all, it is the Membership that directs the Board. It is that collective voice that has been the guiding force of VIREB; its history is the history of its Members. Supporting the Board Directors and Membership are the men and women that have orches- trated the business of the Board.

  • Northwest Multiple Listing Service Makes Rule Changes to Increase Transparency and Flexibility for Consumers and Brokers
    Media Contact: Natalie Quick p: (206) 779-0489 or e: [email protected] Northwest Multiple Listing Service Makes Rule Changes to Increase Transparency and Flexibility for Consumers and Brokers NWMLS Modernizes its Rules Related to the Compensation Paid by the Seller to the Broker who Procures the Buyer. Kirkland, Wash. – July 22, 2019 – The Northwest Multiple Listing Service (“NWMLS”) today announced it is making changes to its rules in a move to increase transparency and flexibility for consumers and its more than 30,000 real estate brokers. The rules revisions allow real estate firms to publish the amount of commission the seller is offering to pay a broker representing the buyer (known as the “selling office commission” or “SOC”) on the firms’ public websites along with the other listing information (e.g. list price, square footage, bedrooms, bathrooms, and other detailed property information). Making this information readily available to consumers will allow for complete transparency with regard to buyers’ broker’s compensation and provide consumers with additional information at the outset of the transaction. The changes also remove the requirement that a seller offer a SOC when listing a property for sale and, if there is no SOC offered, allow the buyer and buyer’s broker the opportunity to negotiate the compensation of the buyer’s broker as a part of the offer to purchase. This revision allows greater flexibility for sellers when listing a property, while affording buyers and buyer’s brokers a vehicle for negotiating the compensation for the buyer’s broker’s services (if no SOC is offered).

  • Off-MLS and Coming Soon Listings the Real Estate Industry Has Histo
    Idaho Real Estate Commission Guideline #8 (Adopted May 2020) Off-MLS and Coming Soon Listings The real estate industry has historically marketed listings for sale in the same fashion: take the listing, put up a sign, put it in the Multiple Listing Service (MLS) and commence other marketing techniques. Industry trends are appearing that have altered these methods in some transactions. Two of these practices are Off-MLS and Coming Soon listings. First, the definitions of each: • Coming Soon Listings A Coming Soon Listing is a listing that the Seller and listing Broker have agreed will be marketed for sale immediately, but no Buyers or Agents are allowed to view the property until the coming soon phase is complete. Reasons for this agreement vary but include the Seller is making needed repairs, the Seller wishes to move out prior to showings, or the Seller and Broker wish to build pent up demand. • Off-MLS Listings An Off-MLS Listing is a listing that the Seller and listing Broker have agreed will never be marketed in the MLS. The listing Broker uses other marketing techniques to procure Buyers for the property, just not the MLS. Other names of Off-MLS listings include: • Pocket Listings • Office Exclusive Listings The Idaho Real Estate Commission receives calls about properties being marketed as Off-MLS and Coming Soon and offer the following guidance. There may be legitimate reasons to promote a property like this, and there are also improper reasons. The Idaho Real Estate Commission (IREC) takes no position on Off-MLS and Coming Soon listings aside from how Idaho license law may play a part.
