  • Mls Glossary of Terms
    MLS GLOSSARY OF TERMS A Acceptance - The time at which an offer to purchase is accepted. The fact that it was accepted must be relayed to the person that made an offer for all parties to be bound to the contract. Acres - The total number of acres of the property. Acres Cultivated – (of land or fields) Prepared for raising crops by plowing or fertilizing. Acres Pasture – This type of land is typically used by animals. Acres Timber – Trees or wooded land considered as a source of wood. Ad Valorem Tax – Charged by local government, this tax is based on the value of the property, as determined by the local government authorities.

Some ARMS are convertible to a fixed interest rate after a period.

  • 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.

  • INTERNET DATA EXCHANGE (IDX) Rules
    INTERNET DATA EXCHANGE (IDX) Rules SECTION 12.3 - DISPLAY OF LISTING DATA ON PARTICIPANTS’/SUBSCRIBERS’ PUBLIC WEBSITES IDX affords MLS Participants the option of authorizing display of their listings on other Participants’ Internet websites. A Participant is presumed to give consent to other Participants to download listings from the Heartland MLS database compilation for display on the other Participants’/Subscribers’ public websites, including data about properties listed with the Participant, unless the Participant affirmatively notifies Heartland MLS that the Participant declines to permit the display of the Participant’s listings on other Participants’/Subscribers’ public websites. A Participant may withhold consent on a blanket or listing by listing basis. If a Participant refuses to consent to the display of his or her listings on other Participants’ public websites on a blanket basis, then neither the Participant nor his or her Subscriber(s) shall be eligible to download from Heartland MLS database compilation other Participants’ listings for display on the Participant’s or Subscriber’s public websites. Even where Participants have given blanket authority for other Participants to display their listings on IDX sites, such consent may be withdrawn on a listing-by- listing basis as instructed by the seller. A Heartland MLS Subscriber may display Heartland MLS listing data on the Subscriber’s public website pursuant to this Section 12.3 only if the Subscriber is affiliated with a Participant who has consented to allow other Participants/Subscribers to display the Participant’s listings on the other Participants’/Subscribers’ websites. The decision to withhold consent on a listing by listing basis to the display of a Participant’s listing on other Participants’/Subscribers’ websites can only be made by the listing Participant, and not by a Subscriber.
