Greater Montreal Real Estate Board

The Greater Montréal Real Estate Board (GMREB), or Chambre immobilière du Grand Montréal in French, is the second largest real estate board in Canada.[1]

History

Created in 1954, GMREB is a not-for-profit association that represents almost all of the 10,000 real estate brokers in the Montréal Metropolitan Area.[2] It is the second largest real estate board in Canada and one of the 20 largest boards in North America.[3]

GMREB plays a role in representing its members among government authorities, the media, the public and various industry-related associations. It issues press releases on real estate topics, as well as monthly statistics for the real estate market.

In 2013, GMREB voted to break away from the Canadian Real Estate Association, and removed all listings from their national website, Realtor.ca.[4] However, as of November 2018, CREA displays real estate listings from Montreal on their website.
