Brokers must publicly market home listings

Beginning June 11, 2026, Washington brokers marketing homes for sale or rent to private groups must also market them publicly. This marketing must reach the general public and all other brokers at the same time. Exclusive marketing is allowed only when reasonably needed to protect the owner's or occupant's health or safety. Public marketing does not require owners to let anyone enter the property or home. The required broker information pamphlet explains this rule, and violations are subject to the state's broker licensing enforcement.
