What is Coming Soon Status?
Coming Soon – Indicates that the broker and the seller are preparing the property for sale and for marketing as Active Status. This status is not intended to give the listing broker an advantage in finding a buyer for the property to the detriment of cooperating brokers or to circumvent the selling of the property on an open market. The intended use of this status is to provide a vehicle for participants and subscribers to notify other participants and subscribers of properties that will be made fully available for showing and marketing after preparations have been completed. While the property is in “Coming Soon” Status, the seller and the listing broker may not promote or advertise the property in any manner other than as “coming soon”. Properties in this status may not be shown.
Please note that Coming Soon rules vary by each MLS assosication. Refer to your local MLS rules for using Coming Soon for your listings.
