Text messages and emails
Quebec trade rule for real estate brokers.
The rule
the anti-spam law: A commercial electronic message requires the recipient's express or implied consent (art. 6). An inquiry gives only a six-month implied consent (art. 10(10)e)). For property alerts sent for more than six months, the buyer's express consent must therefore be obtained; this is one of the rules we define with you at setup.
Information about Quebec rules, not legal advice. Check with your professional order, advisor or the official source.
