documents needed to list on realtor.ca
Listing your property on the MLS® System is easier than many people think!
What documents do we need from you in British Columbia?
Photo ID
Each person on the title needs to provide their ID to the brokerage, in the form of a clear scan or photo of their driver's licence or passport.
The document must still be valid (not expired).
Proof of Ownership
A Property Tax Statement or a Title Certificate is provided by the municipality that your property is located in. Most home owners have access to these documents. We can use either of these documents because they verify that the seller is the owner of the property.
* There are some allowable exceptions whereby a power of Attorney, Executor, or Life Lease may be provided in lieu of ownership.
Copy of Property Title
You can either supply your own property title, or purchase it through us. If you supply your own, it MUST be dated within 30 days of your property going live on REALTOR.ca, otherwise it will be rejected by the real estate board.
To save yourself the hassle of acquiring one yourself, we can take care of it for you for a modest fee of $20 + GST.
Legal Suite Proof of Registration
If the premises contain a legal suite, please provide proof of registration such as the registration document from the jurisdiction, or a property tax assessment that denotes the presence of the legal suite.
NOTE: only some boards in BC require this information.
Mobile/Manufactured Home Registry
If you are listing a mobile or manufactured home, a registry dated within 30 days is required.
Option A) Pull it online from the BC government website
Option B) Find your nearest registry & obtain it in-person
Condo/Strata Listings
If you are listing a condominium or a strata property, it is a requirement for the brokerage to retain a copy of your condo/strata documents prior to going live on the MLS® System.
Some boards require only the Bylaws and Condo/Strata plan while others require more (specific to your property location). You will be prompted in the steps after purchasing your listing to upload the specific documents needed based on your location. You may also contact us to inquire further.
