SCCAOR Members Attend 2017 Legislative Day in Sacramento


The legislation we discussed was C.A.R’s opposition to AB 1059, which would ban dual agency in commercial transactions. We also opposed SB 640 which would lay the foundation of creating a service tax in California which would not only harm REALTORS®, but also the homebuyers that would pay the tax. Finally, we addressed a myriad of bills that would increase housing supply to address affordability and availability of housing in California. AB 1059 and SB 640 are now effectively two-year bills and will not be moving forward during 2017.
