In the past week, the Legal Information Line has registered a 30% increase in calls due to questions regarding the new resale package law.
The law which requires the seller to provide the resale package at his expense is effective JUNE 9, 2009. This provision of AB 253 became effective upon the passage and approval of SB350, which was signed by the Governor on June 9. There are no exemptions or exceptions to this rule.

Final Legislative Review for 2009
Note from your Lobbying Team
The 2009 Legislature adjourned sine die at 12:24 am on June 2 (1:00 am is the deadline). For the first time since 1999, no special session was called immediately after the regular session’s adjournment to complete the work of the Legislature.
It has been a very interesting session, with the economic crisis and foreclosure issues dominating a lot of the discussions. There was also a new dynamic created by term limits coming into play, and legislators in place that would not be seeking reelection.
At the end of the day, REALTORS® came out of the Legislative Session well protected, and all of NVAR’s issues were addressed successfully.
A thorough review of the Session will be prepared in the coming weeks, and will be available on www.nvar.org once published. You can also contact your local association to find out when we will be making a presentation on this Session’s accomplishments, we’d love to see you there.
