Real Estate Tipline For Agent Misconduct

Mar 19, 2018 | 6:37 AM

A new anonymous tipline has been set up for reporting real estate misconduct.

The Real Estate Council of BC is behind it.

Both consumers and real estate agents are encouraged to use it if they suspect misconduct by real estate agents.

Trained investigators will review each tip and make sure appropriate action is taken.

The provincial government recently increased fines for misconduct from 10 thousand dollars for an individual to 250 thousand dollars.

The number to call is 1 833 420 2400.
