Every year, more Ontario agents ask the same question. With higher costs and fewer transactions, many agents are rethinking what they really need to stay licensed and active.

Why Are More Agents Asking This Question?

  • Agents are completing fewer transactions than they did several years ago.

  • Many are exploring ways to reduce overhead while remaining licensed and active.

  • Agents also recognize that fewer transactions are taking place across the marketplace while property values in many areas remain below their previous highs.

As a result, more agents are asking questions they may never have considered before.

  • Do I still need TRREB?
  • What happens if I don't renew?
  • Can I still do real estate transactions?
  • Can I still show and sell MLS listings?
  • I've already paid for 2026 — what happens now?
  • Can I reduce my costs and still remain active?

The answers may be different than you think.
