CCAR Leaders Take Housing Priorities to Capitol Hill

Last week, a group of CCAR leaders including President John Fondnazio and NAR Director and Federal Political Coordinator Leslie Manzone joined more than 200 other California REALTORS® in Washington, D.C. to meet with congressional representatives and advocate for policies that support housing affordability and homeownership.

The delegation met with staff from Congressman Mark DeSaulnier’s and Congressman John Garamendi’s offices, and some members also met with U.S. Senators Alex Padilla and Adam Schiff.

MLS Rules Update – Effective July 6

11.5.3 Listing Photographs (IDX)
When a listing is changed to Sold, Expired, or Cancelled status, only the primary/main photo of the property will be authorized to display on IDX websites and syndicated portals. 

All photos remain available within the MLS system for all Subscribers and Participants.

This update is intended to provide more consistency in public photo display while preserving full access within the MLS.

Top Tools to Power Up Your Business

Whether you’re winning new clients, managing transactions, or building your brand, CCAR benefits are designed to save you time, reduce risk, and strengthen your business.
CCAR Products & Services Guide >

Upcoming MLS Change:
CDOM Relocation to History Tab

Effective July 6, 2026, the Cumulative Days on Market (CDOM) count will move from MLS reports to the History tab.

This change is intended to keep the listing’s current Days on Market (DOM) count prominently displayed within the MLS report, while encouraging subscribers to reference the History tab for additional listing context.

The History tab provides a more complete view of the property and listing lifecycle, including prior listing activity that may affect the CDOM count. Moving CDOM to the History tab allows subscribers to view the supporting details and better understand why the CDOM and DOM counts may differ.

The History tab can be found below the listing photos on the MLS report, represented as an ‘H’ icon.
