Compliance
Get to Know the Compliance Knowledgebase
The CRMLS Compliance Knowledgebase is a collection of guides, reference materials, FAQs, and How-Tos available via the CRMLS Compliance website. Scroll through and search the topics to find answers and instructions for your most common inquiries.
This month we highlight the Compliance Knowledgebase article “Coming Soon FAQs”.
Below is a list of important information to be aware of when using the Coming Soon Status:
- The Coming Soon Form must be signed by the seller prior to submitting the listing as Coming Soon in the MLS.
- You may market a listing in the Coming Soon status to any consumer, whether they are existing clients of the brokerage or not, so long as the marketing clearly labels the listing as Coming Soon and states when the listing will be placed in the status of Active.
- The Coming Soon status allows listing brokers and agents to place a listing in the MLS for cooperation for up to 21 days (except New Construction Listings) while preparing a property for showings (staging, professional interior photos, repairs, etc.).
- The listing will automatically update from Coming Soon to Active on Day 22 of the listing’s input date or on the Start Showing Date, whichever is earlier.
- CRMLS cannot extend the 21-day limit on a listing in Coming Soon status under any circumstances (except New Construction Listings), and the MLS system will not allow you to select a date more than 21 days from the entry date. Should you need more time, you may place the listing in the Hold status.
- No one can show Coming Soon listings to anyone under any circumstances. This includes but is not limited to Virtual Open Houses and Virtual Showings. If you plan to show the property, you must update the listing status to Active or Active Under Contract prior to the showing date.
Note: Coming Soon is a one-time use status. Once changed to Active, the property cannot be changed back to Coming Soon.
