This guide outlines the step-by-step process for canceling a property listing on the MLS in California. It ensures all necessary approvals, documentation, and system updates are completed accurately and efficiently. By following this process, you can avoid delays, maintain compliance, and ensure a smooth listing cancellation.
Step 1: Create the Skyslope File
A Skyslope file must exist for the listing to be canceled.
The following documents should be included in the file:

All pertinent documents
Step 2: Prepare and Send the CAR Form (COL) for Cancellation
Fill out the CAR Cancellation of Listing Agreement (COL) form.
Send the form to the principal (seller) for signature via DocuSign.
Step 3: Obtain the Managing Broker’s Signature
