Premium Access to MLS

[Andrew Jones]

Hey BP community!

I am looking for the knowledge of a past or present realtor to answer these questions for me:

Once you pass the test to become a licensed realtor can you have access right away to the premium part of the MLS?

Do you get to have access to the more in depth information provided by the MLS if you are not associated with a company?

Once you leave the company can you still have premium access?

Do you need to hold a licence that is in effect to access it?

I ask this because I am interested in acquiring a license but I am unsure if the fees associated with holding one are worthwhile for the potential one or two transaction I'll be making a year to invest in my own personal property purchases.

Thank you for your feedback,


Andrew J

For your license to be a active, you must be with a broker. You must have an active license, and be a member of the board of realtors to gain MLS access. Here, realtor association and MLS are about $900/year.
