Let's Clear Up The Confusion

What Every Agent Should Know

You can be a part-time REALTOR® and still build a meaningful business.

You can have another career, business or family commitments alongside real estate.

RECO registration is required to trade in real estate in Ontario.

Real estate board membership — like TREB — is optional, not mandatory.

TREB and non-TREB agents receive the same superior brokerage support at TRRP.

You decide how active your business becomes — and when that changes.

A Real Example

Building A Business Around Real Life

Meet a TRRP agent who teaches full-time and works real estate around evenings, weekends and school breaks.

  • Works with buyers and sellers on evenings & weekends
  • Maintains her teaching career, salary and benefits
  • Completes 4–6 transactions per year, by design
  • Stays fully licensed with full TRRP support
  • Builds her business at her own pace — no quotas, no pressure

The Lesson

Have a simple, written plan
Stay consistent, even in small windows of time
Use technology to save time
Lean on your brokerage for support

You don't need more hours in the day. You need a plan, consistency and the right tools.

The question isn't how much time you have.
It's how you use it.

The Choice Is Yours

Which Board Membership Makes Sense for You?

We support both board members and non-board members.

Whether you are a TRREB member, belong to another real estate board, or choose not to belong to one, we will help you determine what best supports your business—not ours.

Both Can Trade. Both Can Compete.

Board members and non-board members can both show MLS®-listed properties, represent buyers and sellers, submit offers, and list properties through the appropriate MLS® system.

The difference is primarily the board you belong to, the systems and services you can access directly, and the fees you pay—not whether you are registered to trade in real estate.

Real Estate Board Membership

Why Some Agents Choose Board Membership

  • Direct access to your board's MLS® systems and member services
  • Market statistics, professional resources and education
  • Local networking and industry events
  • Access to board tools, forms and member benefits
  • Well suited for agents who regularly work within a board's trading area
Non-Board Model

Why the Non-Board Model Works for Some Agents

  • No annual real estate board membership fees or dues
  • Continue trading as a fully registered real estate agent
  • Work with MLS®-listed and non-MLS® properties
  • Prepare and submit offers for sale or lease
  • List properties on MLS® through Toronto Real Estate Realty Plus
Whichever Option You Choose, We've Got You Covered. Whether you choose real estate board membership or the non-board model, you'll receive the same professional brokerage support from Toronto Real Estate Realty Plus.

Please Note: Board membership fees, services and benefits vary by board. If you're considering changing your board membership or brokerage, we'll help you understand your options so you can make an informed business decision.
