As CREB^®’s Board Chair, I’d like to update members on the Alberta Real Estate Association (AREA) legal proceedings that we informed you about on January 23, 2026.

We received this notification from the Lake Bonavista Homeowners Association that may be important for you or your clients.

The Canadian Real Estate Association’s (CREA) Open Forum and Annual General Meeting will take place on Apr. 14, 2026, in Ottawa, Ontario. 

Nominations close tomorrow (Wednesday, March 11) at 4 p.m. for the 2026 CREB^® Board By-election. We encourage all interested members to consider stepping forward.

CREA has announced the names of members who stand for election to their Board of Directors.

As my term as the first public director of CREB^® concludes, I want to sincerely thank the members for the opportunity to serve. 

As we launch into by-election nominations, we wanted to take an opportunity to notify members of an issue that was identified and corrected in regard to bylaw 6.9 – Vacancies.

Nominations open March 4 for the by-election that will be held on March 25.

The CREB^® Lobbybox program involves centralized lockboxes for apartment-style condominiums that hold the key or fob to the main door.
