WHAT IS CIREBA?
The Cayman Islands Real Estate Brokers
Association (CIREBA) is a not-for-profit
association that was set up in 1987
to provide a professional network for the
different real estate companies in the Cayman
Islands. Today, it provides the Multiple Listing
System (MLS) and acts as a central source
of information for its members, including the
publication of this magazine.
To be a member of CIREBA, agents and
brokers must follow the Association’s code
of business standards as set out in CIREBA’s
Rules and Regulations. A high level of
competence is expected from all members
and they must adhere to the code of ethics
set down by the association. CIREBA monitors
the business standards and practices of all its
members to ensure fair, honest and professional
dealings in all real estate transactions.
CIREBA conducts regular training courses for
its members to ensure ongoing professional
development and to ensure agents and brokers
are kept up-to-date with current business
practices, the latest statutory regulations
and all requirements of Cayman’s real estate
industry. Qualifications through course
attendance and examination is now part of
the mandatory requirements for all CIREBA
members.
Dealing with a CIREBA member is your
assurance of doing business with a trained
professional who at all times will be guided by
the high standards set by CIREBA.

THE MULTIPLE LISTING SYSTEM (MLS)
The Multiple Listing System (MLS) is
becoming more widely used in major
markets around the world, having
originated from the U.S. and Canada. The
MLS allows for properties listed through
one CIREBA-member company to be
available for every CIREBA agent in every
CIREBA-member company, to show and sell.
Prospective buyers therefore have access to
literally billions of dollars worth of listings and
sellers can be assured their properties will
be presented to the widest possible market
through their chosen CIREBA agent. It’s as
simple as that!
You do not have to make endless visits to
different broker firms. As a seller, listing your
property with a CIREBA agent means you not
only have that particular firm working for you,
but all the other members also have access
to sell your listing through the MLS – that’s
34 firms and more than 164 agents working
to make your sale through that one CIREBA
listing!
There is more than $1.42 billion dollars worth
of real estate listed through CIREBA and the
MLS! You can review these listings on our
website which can be found at
