Federal Do Not Call regulations apply to
the everyday activities of a real estate office.
Agents' routine calls to FSBOs and expireds, past clients, and even
responses to new inquiries can all trigger violations under the complex
rules. And the penalty for even one violation is $11,000.
The good news is that the government
regulations provide "safe harbor" protection that may allow brokers to
avoid penalty if an agent or staff member inadvertently makes a
prohibited call. The safe harbor provision, however, requires that an
office maintain strict recordkeeping, look-up tools, and an audit
trail.
Even better, as a member of the Texas Association of REALTORS®,
this valuable service is available to you at
no cost. Note: If you need to check numbers in more than
five area codes, the Federal Trade Commission requires you to pay the
FTC $54/year for access to each additional area code (over the five free
ones).
- - - - IMPORTANT - - - -
Do-Not-Call safe harbor compliance must be managed at the company level.
Individual agents or offices acting independently cannot fully protect
themselves.
