Advertising (Print and Electronic), Section 3: Transmittal of Participants' Listings to Aggregators (Policy Statement 7.87)

MLSs are not required to transmit participants’ listings to third-party aggregators or to operate a public website displaying listing information. If an MLS transmits participants’ listings to third-party aggregators and/or operates a public website displaying listing information, all exclusive listings, regardless of type, will be included in the data feed (unless a participant withholds consent for such transmission), except that MLSs may exclude from such data feed any listing where both of the following conditions are present:

a) the listed property’s street address or a graphic display of the property’s specific location will be displayed to the public; and

b) the seller displays on the property a “for sale by owner” sign or other sign or notice indicating that the seller is soliciting direct contact from buyers. (Adopted 11/06) M
