7.5 Mandatory Submission. Within 3 days after all necessary signatures of the seller(s) have been obtained on the listing or at the beginning date of the listing as specified in the contract, whichever is later, on any exclusive right to sell or seller reserved listing on one to four unit residential property and vacant lots located within the service area of the MLS, Broker Participants shall (1) input the listing to the service, or (2) submit a seller-signed exclusion in accordance with Section 7.6 (Exempted Listings) to the service. All necessary signatures are those needed to create an enforceable listing, which generally means all named signatories to the listing agreement. In the event there are known additional property owners not made a signatory to the listing, listing broker shall disclose said fact on the service and state whether the listed seller will make the sale contingent on the consent of the additional property owners. In the event listing agent is prevented from complying with the 2 day time period due to seller’s delay in returning the signed listing agreement, listing broker must submit the listing to the service within 2 days of receipt back from seller. The MLS may require listing broker to present documentation to the service evidencing seller’s delayed transmission. Only those listings that are within the service area of the MLS must be input. Open listings or listings of property located outside the MLS’s service area (see Section 7.7) are not required by the service, but may be input at the Broker Participant’s option.
(a) Within one (1) business day of marketing a property to the public, the listing broker must submit the listing to the MLS for cooperation with other MLS participants. Public marketing includes, but is not limited to, flyers displayed in windows, yard signs, digital marketing on public facing websites, brokerage website displays (including IDX and VOW), digital communications marketing (email blasts), multi-brokerage listing sharing networks, and applications available to the general public.
