Great news. When would it start?
Paperwork will be done by the lawyer.

----"CREA opens MLS up to allow flat-fee listings by licensed realtors if the local member boards approve the changes locally."
The Canadian Competition Bureau responds with "that's a step in the wrong direction" and argues it makes the marketplace less competitive not more.
Lot of Realtor will not renew their license if these changes become law.
This is a big cartel industry all over Canada who spends lot of money on lobbying, advertisement and keeping monopoly.
My Input
Yes., You can sell your Home yourself. I based my calculation on a 400,000 CAD home. Realtor commission for this house will be 5% or aprox. 20,000 . You can save so much money if you have the time to do selling yourself. You can use the services of by the owner.com , they cost around 700-800 CAD upfront, You can spend another 5000 dollars for upgrading your house like repainting etc, so in total you will be spending 6000 dollars & you can save around 14,000 or so. Only thing is that House should be in high demand area so that it can sell easily by itself.

I'm also surprised so far not a single realtor has put any comment

We might get some comments from Realtors if this post is moved to Real Estate section.

My take on this. I spoke to couple of realtors I know. Looks like it could potentially end up like any private listing website. The agent will upload your info for a flat fee. Then u r on your own, just like any other private listing sites. U may not get the prices of houses that were sold. That means u cant compare the price/get an idea of how much u have to list your property. Dont forget that many drifters / time fillers will come to see the property who are not in the market or who dont have financial backing to buy. U just need to get one serious buyer.
