❉ Upcoming MLS System Changes – Effective November 23, 2026

MLS
Posted on October 21, 2026

We will be implementing several MLS system updates effective Monday, November 23, 2026. These changes include the removal of certain fields, an update to how the Point-of-Sale Ordinance field is populated, new accessibility-related feature options, and a new disclaimer on the Tour Report.

Please review the updates below to understand how they may affect your listing input and daily MLS workflow.

1. Removal of Fields

The following fields will be removed from listing input and search for all property classes:

  • Percent Owner Occupied
  • Number of Units in Complex
  • Concession at Close of Escrow “COE” (Y/N)

2. Update to Point of Sale Ordinance Field

The automatic relationship between Point-of-Sale Ordinance and CITY will be removed.

What does this mean for you:

  • The Point-of-Sale Ordinance field will no longer automatically populate based on the selected city.
  • Agents may manually select Yes or No as applicable.
  • This is an optional field and is not required.

3. New Accessibility Features

We will be adding new accessibility-related options to select Feature Categories to provide additional choices for describing accessibility features in a property.

Click here for details on the new items and the applicable Feature Categories.

When entering or updating a listing, please review the available options and select the features that accurately describe the property.

4. New Disclaimer on the Tour Report

A disclaimer will be added to the bottom of the Tour Report to clarify the MLS’s role and responsibility regarding property tours.

The disclaimer will read:

The MLS does not sponsor, endorse, or in any manner affiliate with any tour of properties that may be on the market. To the extent there are tours of properties that are on the market and may be listed in the MLS, those tours are arranged, conducted, and are the sole responsibility of the listing Participant/Subscriber. The MLS does not accept responsibility for any aspect of the tour process, and all questions or concerns must be directed solely to the listing Participant/Subscriber.
