Updates to the Program
Rental Calculations:
The method for calculating rental units has been updated as follows:
- Long-Term Rentals: Each long-term rental equals 1 unit, with the dollar value calculated as the gross value of the lease.
Example: $1,000/month for 12 months = $12,000. - Short-Term Rentals: Ten short-term rentals equal 1 unit, with the dollar value calculated as the gross value of the lease.
Example: $1,000/month for 3 months = $3,000.
These updated calculations apply to both dollar and unit-based qualification methods.
Non-MLS Rental Transactions:
The lease start date will now be used as the qualifying date for non-MLS rental transactions. Transactions listed in the MLS will continue to use the close date.

All requirements for designations and certifications must be completed between November 4, 2023, and November 15, 2024.
