British Columbia digital alteration disclosure workflow

British Columbia guidance often uses “digitally altered” language, so listing teams need page-level clarity on what that means for virtual staging workflows.

Answer First Summary

In British Columbia, teams should be ready to describe virtually staged media as digitally altered when that terminology is the clearer compliance fit for the channel they are serving.

Full Explanation

British Columbia disclosure language can differ from U.S. MLS phrasing. Teams should make sure the wording used on-image and in delivery artifacts matches the terminology expected by the market and the brokerage operating there.

SeaRei supports that by keeping the disclosure copy centralized, preserving before-and-after traceability, and delivering bundles that help the team explain how a staged image was produced and labeled.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does British Columbia guidance emphasize “digitally altered”?

Because the disclosure framing often needs to communicate the broader fact that the image was materially changed, not just that virtual furniture was inserted.

How does SeaRei keep the wording consistent?

The disclosure text is managed from a shared content source so teams can update the page copy and the production workflow together when policy changes.
