Local real estate board welcomes changes after provincial council turfed
Medicine Hat, AB – The signs of dysfunction within the agency tasked with overseeing the real estate industry in Alberta were clear, according to the president of the Medicine Hat Real Estate Board (MHREB).
On Wednesday, Service Alberta Minister Nate Glubish executed the primary recommendation of a report commissioned to review the Real Estate Council of Alberta and dismissed its members.
The provincial council develops and enforces industry regulations but spent the vast majority of its time working on internal governance issues rather than developing relationships with industry, according to a KPMG report commissioned by the Alberta Government in January.
