Section 5.13 Compensation Offers Prohibited
Participants, Subscribers or their sellers may not make offers of compensation to buyer brokers and other buyer representatives in the MLS. No language regarding offers of compensation, whether plainly stated, or that indirectly or discreetly refers viewers to alternative platforms that offer buyer agent compensation, shall be permitted in any field of the MLS. CVR MLS staff shall remove any language in a listing that refers to an offer of compensation, and the listing agent shall be subject to a fine.
