Title Fraud is Rising in CA – What to Know

Title fraud, or deed theft, is a growing concern in California, particularly in high-value urban and suburban markets. Scammers often target vacant land, rental properties, and homes with significant equity, using forged documents to transfer ownership, sell the property, or take out loans before homeowners realize what happened. In 2025, 62% of real estate professionals reported encountering title fraud. California’s high-equity housing market makes it especially vulnerable, but homeowners can reduce risk by monitoring County Recorder records or signing up for local deed alert services.

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.

What is an MLS?

by

WHAT IS AN MLS?

When you buy or sell a home, your real estate professional may use a multiple listing service (MLS) to find homes for sale or market your property. Here is what you need to know:

WHAT IS AN MLS?

An MLS provides an online platform that compiles home listings from brokerages in a given market. An MLS offers an efficient tool for marketing properties, seeing available homes for sale, getting helpful marketplace data, and sharing listing information to national and local websites that advertise property information to consumers and provide online brokerage services. There are around 500 MLSs across the U.S. Each MLS sets its own rules to make sure its information is complete, accurate and transparent.

What VALUE DOES AN MLS PROVIDE?

MLSs allow real estate professionals to see, share and promote homes for sale so that they can be found by the largest pool of potential buyers. MLSs provide the most accurate, reliable and detailed information about properties (both those that have sold and those currently for sale), including listing price, address, features, disclosures and other pertinent property and market details. MLSs also help promote fair housing and equal opportunity by giving real estate professionals and their clients access to consistent information.

HOW CAN AN MLS HELP ME BUY A HOME?

Using an MLS allows your agent to access many homes for sale and connect with agents working to sell their clients’ homes.

HOW CAN AN MLS HELP ME SELL MY HOME?

MLSs are the most trusted source for real estate data because their information is curated and verified by real estate professionals. Listing on an MLS will help a seller reach the largest pool of buyers and potentially attract the best offer.

Am I required to market my home through an MLS?

No. As a seller, if you decide to have your agent not list your home on an MLS because you prefer to limit or restrict market exposure, you will be asked to sign a document verifying that you have made this choice. MLSs have rules aimed at ensuring equitable access to accurate and reliable property data, and these rules also provide sellers with flexibility in how they work with their real estate professional in marketing their homes.

Note that one of an MLS’s core values is its ability to offer a complete, accurate picture of homes for sales in a market. This helps not just sellers and buyers, but also lenders, appraisers and others making decisions based on market activity.

Can I make an offer to compensate a buyer’s agent on an MLS?

No. An offer of compensation is when the seller or the seller’s agent offers to compensate another agent for bringing a buyer to successfully close the home purchase. As of August 17, 2024, offers of compensation are no longer allowed on MLSs. However, offers of compensation can still be made off-MLS and shared through common marketing vehicles such as flyers, signs, emails or other communications. Read more about offers of compensation.

Can I offer concessions on an MLS?

To attract more buyers, sellers may offer concessions to cover certain costs associated with the buyer’s home purchase that a seller agrees to pay (eg, cost for a new roof, or closing costs). MLSs may allow communications about concessions, but it depends on local rules. Read more about concessions.

How do I access MLS information?

MLS data is shared on brokerage websites that consumers can access. If you are a buyer, your agent will provide you with MLS property listings that may meet your criteria. For both buyers and sellers, when you work with an agent who has access to an MLS, you can discuss how the MLS can benefit you. Your agent will help you to weigh your options and develop a strategy you are confident in.

Your real estate agent will help you navigate the purchase or sale of your home; for legal advice, consult an attorney licensed in your state. Not all real estate professionals are REALTORS®. Only those who are members of the National Association of REALTORS® may use the term REALTOR®, and they are obligated under NAR’s Code of Ethics to work in your best interest.

Security Alert: Fake Zoom Links Used in Phishing Scam Targeting Agents

CCAR Member Services is receiving reports of a phishing scam targeting agents. Scammers pose as interested buyers, then send fake Zoom links that can give criminals access to a computer if clicked.

Microsoft recently warned that similar campaigns have used spoofed Zoom and other workplace app downloads to install remote access malware. Use caution with unexpected links or download prompts, and verify suspicious requests before clicking.

Follow the link for more details about the scam from Microsoft.

MLS UPDATES 

We’re updating the MLS to give you more control when adding your listings. These improvements help create better search results and give your property details the attention they deserve.

  • Directions to Property: Character limit increased from 50 to 70 to allow for clearer, more complete directions.
  • Public Remarks: Character limit increased from 1,000 to 2,500 characters.
  • Listing Photos: Maximum number of photos increased from 60 to 99.
  • Water and Sewer Features: These will now appear as separate feature categories for more accurate data entry and search results.
  • New Selectable Features:
    • “Taxiway Properties” added to X – Lot Description in the Residential class and H – Lot Description in the Lots & Land
    • “Aircraft Hangar” added to N – Garage/Parking in the Residential class

New MLS Status: Sold Off MLS
This status is designed to improve data accuracy and provide a clearer picture of market activity. It allows subscribers to enter a property that was sold before being submitted to the MLS, ensuring it is captured for comparable and reporting purposes. Meaning, at the seller’s request, the property was never entered into the MLS prior to the sale.
