Neighbourhood Codes Become Mandatory
In response to membership requests, the Board of Directors approved the implementation of mandatory neighbourhood codes, effective January 2011. You will need to insert a 3-digit mandatory neighbourhood code on all listings in order for the listing to be processed. Please refer to the chart on Message of the Day to look up the new information, and on MLXChange, refer to Resources – Resource Links – Web Tools – RAHB Neighbourhood Map. New RAHB Outlying Areas maps will be available in the Realty Shoppe shortly.
Revised RAHB Bylaw now online
The revised RAHB Bylaw and Rules and Regulations are now available online on the RAHB website on REALTOR Link®.
Changes coming to Broker Load Field Order
RAHB is currently working towards amending the order fields appear in the Broker Load program to reflect the order they appear on the PIF’s (Property Information Forms).  We will advise you via MOD once these fields have been amended.
Who are these members who requested a new mandatory neighbourhood code?
I have not talked to one realtor or office person who feels this should be mandatory.
It is another impediment to listing a property.
Please remove the road blocks. Directors are supposed to make our work easier. This “mandatory” code should remain voluntary.
Make it so you can brokerload directly into the system, so we don’t have to prepare forms on realtorlink and then we have to do it all over again when we broker load it into mlxchange. It’s double work.
You should be able to fill in the forms on mlxchange then print them off get them signed, come back and press submit! Omdreb is currently working on this.
