GCAAR collaborates with Bright MLS to ensure fair housing best practices

Jun 8, 2022
GCAAR collaborates with Bright MLS to ensure fair housing best practices.

To prevent over-regulation and cumbersome disclosure requirements by the General Assembly, earlier this year GCAAR worked with Bright MLS to ensure proper school information is included in listings and fair housing best practices are used.

After a bill was introduced at the state level that would have heavily impacted residential real estate listings and sales in Montgomery County, GCAAR worked with our elected officials to craft a better path forward. After agreeing on a way to better the industry and the marketplace, we partnered with Bright MLS to make these changes a reality. The bill was dropped and we are happy to report these changes are being implemented starting this month.
