When you enter a multi-marketed listing (where there is more than one listing with a single contract), it is necessary that you enter the MLS® numbers for all other corresponding listings in the Alternate MLS® Number field. This helps ensure all listings at that address are properly reported in the event the property is sold. It is also in keeping with RAHB’s MLS® Policies (MLS® Marketing Options, Policy #2).
Please refer to RAHB’s MLS® Policies for more information: http://rahb.ca/MLS/2018/11-2018-MLS-Policies.pdf.
As well, when a multi-marketed property is sold, report only one of the listings as sold. This will ensure that RAHB’s listing statistics are accurately stated, with no listings being double counted (if all of the listing are reported sold, RAHB’s stats would count each as individual sales). Report the sale on the listing that is most relevant, then cancel the remaining listings. There is no additional paperwork required to do this.
