2.    Wildfire risk reporting information
3.    Statewide commercial data
4.    Insurance companies currently offering home and community hardening

MLS Rule Changes (12.15.1 & 12.15.2)

Today, January 3rd, the 12.15.1 and 12.15.2 MLS Rules & Regulation changes will go into effect. These changes are being made as recommended by C.A.R.

Rationale: The two rules conflict with the Model MLS Rule 11.16, as revised in October 2021, which requires MLSs to permit MLS Participants & Subscribers to share the listing broker’s offer of compensation in IDX and VOW displays, and supports greater transparency in sharing the offer of compensation.
