How to Join the MLS

Any California licensed real estate broker, agent, or appraiser may submit an application to become a participant or subscriber in the KCBOR MLS. In addition to holding a valid California real estate license or a valid real estate appraiser’s certificate or license, an applicant must also meet the requirements as set forth in the KCBOR MLS Rules and Regulations.

Take a moment to view the following member benefits and you’ll quickly discover why joining KCBOR MLS is essential to your success.

MLS SYSTEM
The online based MLS system gives members the ability to market their listings to other members of the association and have them distributed to websites such as realtor.com, and more. The MLS system is an excellent way to find properties for Buyers.

SENTRILOCK SYSTEM
KCBOR members may participate in the SentriLock SentriAccess and Bluetooth System using equipment from SentriLock. This system allows them access to listings throughout Kings County if the property owner authorizes the use of a lockbox. A lockbox offers a secure way to protect your clients and gives them piece of mind knowing who is in their home at all times. At the same time the SentriLock System allows easy access to show your properties.
