HB 1641 Mississippi House · 2026 Regular Session

Real Estate Brokers; revise regulations.

HB 1641 revises Mississippi's real estate broker regulations by updating key definitions and procedures. It clarifies the term "real estate broker" to include modern business structures and activities, adds definitions for "automated valuation method" (computerized home value models) and "broker price opinion" (broker estimates of property value), and updates how delinquency notices for unpaid fees are handled. The bill directly affects licensed real estate brokers, salespersons, and their companies operating in Mississippi by standardizing terminology and administrative processes. These changes aim to modernize the regulatory framework without altering licensing requirements or exempting new categories of businesses.
