Following a debate over privacy and pocket listings, the board of directors of the National Association of Realtors on Friday approved a controversial proposal to require listings to include a property address upon submission to a multiple listing service.
The board, which has some 800 members, also approved a policy, originally proposed by Redfin, requiring sold listings (without a sales price) to be included in data feeds in non-disclosure states. (Sold listings are already required to be included in data feeds in every other state.) That policy passed without any discussion, 716 in favor and 44 opposed.
The votes were among the last taken at the board’s meeting on the last day of NAR’s midyear conference, the Realtors Legislative Meetings, which was held virtually and open to both members and the press.
