Since the passage of Senate Bill 1217, there has been considerable discussion about what the new law does, how it interacts with the NAR settlement, and what it means for Oklahoma REALTORS®. Given the complexity of these issues, volunteer leadership has taken a thoughtful approach to reviewing the legislation from multiple perspectives, including consultation with legal counsel, industry experts, and the National Association of REALTORS®.
In the video below, 2026 President Bryan Sheppard discusses key considerations surrounding Senate Bill 1217, which takes effect on November 1, 2026. It discusses the relationship between the new law and existing practice changes, factors brokers may want to consider when making business decisions, and the importance of understanding how the new law may affect your responsibilities moving forward.
This is the first in a series of resources on Senate Bill 1217. Additional tools and resources will be released in the coming weeks and months as we continue to evaluate the law and support members in making informed business decisions. We encourage you to watch the video and stay engaged as more information becomes available.
