Canadian trade association
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Canadian Real Estate Association (CREA; French: L'Association canadienne de l'immobilier, ACI) is a trade association that represents real estate brokers, agents, and salespeople in Canada.[2] CREA's membership includes over 160,000 individuals, working through 61 real estate boards and associations across Canada.[2]
History
CREA was formed in April 1943.[5]
The association is governed by an elected board of directors,[6] which has representation from each region of Canada and features director-at-large positions. The board of CREA currently comprises 16 seats.
In 2024, the Canadian Competition Bureau launched an investigation into CREA over the association's buyer's commission policies.[7]
