Accuracy Matters – Listing Standards, Details & Getting It Right
Better Business Exchange Forum | In-Person at SPAAR
Networking begins at 9:30 AM | Light snacks & refreshments provided

Accuracy in your listings isn’t just best practice, it’s a professional standard that protects your clients, your credibility, and the integrity of the market.

This Better Business Exchange Forum will focus on one of the most important areas of day-to-day practice: how we describe and represent property details in the MLS. From home styles and property characteristics to square footage and what legally qualifies as a bedroom, even small missteps can lead to confusion, liability, and lost trust.

We’re pleased to welcome NorthstarMLS representative Tricia Henchen, who will guide a short presentation and discussion to help clarify standards, expectations, and available resources. This is your opportunity to refresh your knowledge, get aligned with MLS guidance, and ask the questions you’ve been wondering about.
  • Accurate representation of home styles and property characteristics
  • Square footage: what to include, what to question, and how to verify
  • Bedrooms: understanding legal vs. nonconforming designations
  • MLS guidelines, tools, and resources available to you
  • Open Q&A with MLS expertise and peer discussion
 
Come early to connect with fellow professionals, grab a coffee, and settle in before we get started.

This is a working forum, not a lecture. Bring your questions, scenarios, and experiences so you can leave with clarity and confidence in your listings.
