Mere Postings and TRESA
A “Mere Posting” is a type of property listing that appears on MLS and REALTOR.ca through a limited service agreement. While similar to “For Sale By Owner” (FSBO) listings, Mere Postings benefit from enhanced visibility on MLS platforms and REALTOR.ca, where potential buyers can easily find them.
A Mere Posting on any MLS® system offers the same exposure as a full-service listing. Every Mere Posting managed by Toronto Real Estate Realty is featured on the Local Real Estate Board, the Toronto Real Estate Board’s MLS system, Realtor.ca, and the Brokerage’s own website.
For properties located within the jurisdiction of other Real Estate Boards, our Brokerage ensures maximum visibility by listing them on both TREB MLS and the relevant local Board. We utilize Broker Bay services to efficiently schedule property showings and provide a Toll-Free Number to accommodate out-of-town inquiries.
TRESA: The New Real Estate Act Effective December 1, 2023
Starting December 1, 2023, the new Trust in Real Estate Services Act (TRESA) takes effect, introducing updated regulations for real estate transactions. This legislation outlines how we deliver real estate services to Buyers, Sellers, Lessees, and Lessors. Under TRESA, individuals must either represent themselves or be clients of a licensed brokerage to engage in real estate transactions.
LIMITATION OF PROTECTION ON SELF-DIRECTED PARTIES.
Understanding TRESA: Brokerage Services Update
Under the new Trust in Real Estate Services Act (TRESA), our brokerage recognizes that the Act limits the services we can offer to self-directed parties who wish to sell their properties or buyers aiming to make informed investment decisions. After careful evaluation, we have decided not to represent self-directed parties. Instead, to ensure we provide the highest level of service, we will exclusively conduct all transactions on behalf of our clients.
Our Clients
Under the provisions of the Trust in Real Estate Services Act (TRESA), our brokerage is committed to delivering all Mandatory Services as stipulated by the legislation to each client.
