Members are reminded to be particularly vigilant in the use of their lockboxes.
Lockboxes are an important tool to your industry – practice the following measures at all times:
Members are reminded of RAHB’s Rules and Regulations Section 2 – MLS® Listings, Sub-section 2.17
Members shall ensure that lock boxes installed on each of their listings are set with a unique code for the security of their Seller’s property. Further, members shall change the lock box combinations, as required during the course of the listing to maintain reasonable security, and not use any preset manufacturer’s code.
Effective June 1, 2009 a member found to be in breach of the above, shall have a fine of $50 levied for the first offence, and for a second offence $200 will be levied.
