Competition Bureau Rules In Favour of YOU!

Sold Data Coming Soon!

The Competition Tribunal has ruled against the Toronto Real Estate Board and Canadian Real Estate Association and will finally allow it’s members (aka us) to make Sold Data available online. You can access the full ruling here but we’ll summarize below.

Sold data

So here’s what you’ll have access to via the Spring Realty Search tool that you couldn’t before:

  • Sold Information
    As soon as a deal firms up…meaning, all of the conditions are waived (if any) and the price is reported to the MLS system by the listing brokerage we can give you that information. So now you don’t have to bother us 10 times a day asking “How much, how much, how much!” Just log in a have a look, baby!
  • Status Changes
    Right now, when you see a property on MLS you assume it’s available for sale. Not true. When a property is sold conditionally, it still shows as a live listing so with this new data feed, we’ll be able to show you the actual status of these homes. This’ll save us both a ton of time.

That’s it folks. I’ll keep this one quick so we can get out there and ready our search tool for the incoming data! Make sure you sign up here to be notified the moment we’re able to make this info public! Oh, and our search function isn’t working well right now. That’s because we’re in the back end working on it so be patient my little grasshoppers. The time is soon.
