NAR: National Association of Realtors Clear Cooperation Policy


The National Association of Realtors (NAR) has announced that it will retain the Clear Cooperation Policy (CCP) without changes.

However, NAR is introducing a new policy called “Multiple Listing Options for Sellers,” which includes “delayed marketing exempt listings.”

This allows sellers to delay the online marketing of their properties for a period determined by local Multiple Listing Services (MLSs), while still listing them on the MLS.

The new policy aims to provide sellers with more marketing options while maintaining transparency for buyers. It is effective immediately and must be implemented by September 30, 2025
