NAR’s November 12th ruling: No more pocket listings!
The ‘nickname’ of this new policy is ‘Clear Cooperation’.
What is a Pocket Listing? “A listing that is technically for sale, but NOT in the Multiple Listing Service.”
Pocket listings include private listing networks, email blasts, “coming soon” announcements, yard signs, flyers and other tactics that market homes outside Realtor-run “multiple listing services,” or MLS’s, for all or part of their listing period.
