Default MLS revenue breakout

I'm curious....do MLS organizations show their member's where their revenue comes from (dues, fines, etc)?

I would think that varies from one place to another. If you are curious, it wouldn't hurt to ask your local organization, see what they say. It may also depend if they are connected directly with your local board or association of Realtors or a separate company/corporation how much information they would be willing to share.

I doubt it would be public information - but it may be something accessible by actual members either in the backend, or upon request.

Interesting, never been asked here before.

Our is available to Directors and be request to members...much as it would be with a homeowners association or similar group.

I don't think that fines play a big role in revenue..this is Louisville...that'd be more likely in Hazzard Kentucky! I think Boss Hogg is still on the board of REALTORS there! (grin)

Best;

Eric
