Matt Gurney: Paranoid real estate board should join us in the 21st century

18.05.12

Darn that newfangled interweb thing! Don’t you all know that it’s putting you in danger?

That’s the line coming from the Toronto Real Estate Board (TREB), who are pushing back against a recommendation by the Competition Bureau that more real estate information be put online. Realtors obviously have access to detailed information about listings — name of the sellers, their contact information, data on recent trends in the local market — that is part of their trade. They keep such information to themselves. The Competition Bureau believes that this information should be publicly available, so that people who wish to perhaps research and purchase a home on their own are not at a disadvantage compared with someone who agrees to bring a realtor into the transaction (which is obviously how the realtor feeds their family).

TREB, therefore, has something at stake in this fight. If everyone could shop online for houses as easily as they can for car insurance or vacations, real estate would become a tougher trade. But their alarmist rhetoric reveals a distinct lack of knowledge about the wonders of the early 21st century and the extent to which potentially sensitive personal information is already online.
