How We Help Protect

We help protect Alberta’s real estate consumers.

As Alberta’s independent real estate regulator, we ensure that licensees in real estate, mortgage brokerage, property management, and condominium management meet high standards of competence and integrity. Our work protects consumers, strengthens public trust, and upholds the reputation of the industry.

Here’s how we do it:

• Licensing & Education – We set rigorous entry requirements and ongoing education standards to ensure licensees are qualified and up to date.
• Standards & Compliance – We establish and enforce rules that promote ethical business practices and help protect consumers.
• Consumer Protection – We provide resources, guidance, and a formal complaint process to help Albertans make informed decisions.
• Industry Oversight – We stay ahead of industry developments, uphold professional standards, and adjust our approach as needed to support a stable and trustworthy real estate sector.

At RECA, we protect consumers by upholding the integrity of Alberta’s real estate industry—ensuring trust, accountability, and confidence in every transaction.
