Guiding the Future of MLS Governance
The MLS Framework initiative is a CMLS effort to create modern, flexible model MLS rules that help MLSs deliver current, complete, accurate, and timely real estate information while giving local marketplaces a practical foundation to adapt and innovate for the future.
MLS Model Rules
The CMLS Model Rules mark a significant step in shaping a more dynamic, adaptable MLS landscape. As part of the broader MLS Framework initiative, this draft reflects our commitment to clarity, innovation, and leadership.
Created in collaboration with MLS and industry leaders, these optional rules are designed to empower MLSs with modern governance tools—supporting flexibility, streamlining complexity, and anticipating evolving needs.
Whether adopted fully, selectively, or simply referenced, the CMLS Model Rules offer a powerful resource for MLSs ready to lead with confidence.
