In Memoriam: Jerry Feagley
CCAR mourns the passing of member Jerry Feagley, who died on January 7, 2026. Licensed since 1966, Jerry built a six-decade career defined by integrity, personal service, and deep local knowledge. He was the Broker/Owner of Feagley Realtors, the Point Richmond boutique office he founded in 1974 with his wife, Jan, and served as President of the West County Board in 1985. He also helped develop 300+ residential and commercial properties across West Contra Costa County.
Guided by his motto, “After all, it is at the pleasure of our clients that we serve,” Jerry leaves a lasting legacy of professionalism and community commitment. Service information is pending and will be shared when available.

FEATURED COURSE: Partition Law – How to Sell Property When Co-Owners Disagree – Feb 25
Join us Tue, Feb. 25 at 10:00am (Zoom) for a class on partition actions—a legal process that can force the sale of jointly owned property when co-owners can’t agree. Often overlooked (and not a lot split), partition law can help resolve disputes between siblings, former partners, business associates, and other co-owners—and is increasingly relevant as co-ownership rises, especially among unmarried buyers. Ideal for real estate sales professionals looking to handle tough leads and gain an edge. Register on the CCAR Calendar >>

Code of Ethics Violators
In an effort to make ethics violations and the disciplinary process more transparent, C.A.R. is publishing the names of members who are found in violation of the Code of Ethics as well as summaries of the members’ unethical behavior.
Member publication is triggered only if the discipline imposed is a reprimand, fine, suspension or expulsion – anything other than a letter of warning or stand-alone education. The information will be published on the members-only section of car.org.
Past decisions of ethics hearing panels, including the decisions published on C.A.R.’s website, cannot be used as authority by complainants or respondents and cannot…

Take Control of Your Listing Photos with the
“Mark Private” Feature
We encourage you to retain photos on your listings until they are marked Sold in the MLS. Photos are an important part of a listing’s history and serve several key purposes.
Did you know that CCAR MLS Participants and Subscribers have the ability to mark listing photos as “Private” – giving you more control over how your listing images are shared. When photos are marked as Private, they remain visible within the MLS but are not distributed to public-facing websites.
This feature is especially valuable for members who rely on listing photos for comparables, appraisal, and research purposes, allowing you to preserve MLS access while protecting seller privacy and marketing strategy.
How to Mark Photos as Private:
- Go to your listing under LISTINGS → Maintain Listing
- Click on Add/Edit Pictures
- Select the photos you want to mark as Private
- Click ‘Mark Private’ in the top menu bar
- Click Save and exit your listing
For questions or assistance, please contact CCAR Member Services at 925.295.1270.
