The MLS system in Canada is geographic.

It doesn’t matter where the listing agent lives or which Board the agent works under...what counts is the location of the property that is listed. Thus, if a Calgary realtor has a listing on Salt Spring Island, for example, that listing will appear under “Salt Spring”. A Victoria listing appears under Victoria, Duncan under Duncan, Parksville under Parksville...etc. Thus, all Salt Spring Island listings are immediately available to a consumer doing an internet/MLS search...doesn’t matter where the realtor is located, or what Board affiliation they have chosen.

The Southern Gulf Islands are in what is called a “grey area”. They are on the edges of more than one Board jurisdiction, and so a realtor can choose, if on a Gulf Island, which Board to affiliate with. For example, Galiano, Mayne and Saturna Islands listings are often only processed via the Vancouver Board. However, one company on Mayne chooses the Victoria Board, in order to input the listings to the MLS system. Pender and Salt Spring are often processed through the Victoria Board, although some realtors choose to affiliate with the Vancouver Board. Thetis and Gabriola Islands are mainly affiliated with the Vancouver Island Board.

Remember, the consumer sees only the MLS, and a search of a specific area will find a listing in that area, regardless of a realtor’s Board affiliation.

For 18 years I chose the Victoria Board affiliation (1300+ realtors belong to the Victoria Board). Now, I am choosing the Vancouver Board (10,000+ realtors work under the Vancouver Board). There are more real estate agent “eyes” on my listings, then, in the Vancouver Board, which means an increase in potential referral business. Since all MLS listings are geographically sorted, my decision to affiliate with the Vancouver Board is for increased exposure to realtors.

Consumers, see the MLS, and all Salt Spring listings appear un der “Salt Spring”.

I am the branch office of a Whistler based real estate company. As an individual realtor, I am a part of the Luxury Real Estate group out of Seattle, an international partnership arrangement. As a Regent for this group, I am immediately in touch with 90 plus major companies, globally. It is not a franchise model, but a partnership model. What does this mean? It allows innovation, and that is good for the consumer. I have had a local presence (since 1989), & both live and work on Salt Spring Island, with a local office, and I also have created productive national and international connections. These connections are specific...not just a company logo on a business card. I actually have those connections and all of my listings benefit from this exposure. A logo on a business card doesn’t mean that the realtor handing it out is actually using that... it has to be paid for. I do step to the plate and pay to create this exposure for my listing clients.
