100% representation means NEVER DUAL AGENCY !

Keep in mind that REALTOR.ca is an advertising vehicle operated by Canadian REALTORS® to advertise their seller client's properties that have been placed on their local MLS® systems. REALTOR.ca is national in scope and navigation on the web site is offered in both official languages of Canada.

The public will now have easy mobile access to property advertisements designed to be displayed on mobile devices.

I love it. I'm going to start placing the MLS® number and the url for the mobile web site right on my "For Sale" signs.

Have a look - here is a link to one of my REALTOR.ca advertisements in the mobile format:
http://beta1.mobile.realtor.ca/PropertyDetails.aspx?PropertyID=8860436

Mobile users will be able to view images of the inside, get details, and Have my contact info right on their mobile device.
