Verification Trail

Every claim, every source, every date.

We don't ask you to trust us. We ask you to verify us. This page lists every legal, tax, regulatory, and transaction fact in the BC Real Estate Codex, its primary-source URL, the date a human last confirmed the value against the live source, and when we'll next re-verify.

Every Codex deploy emits a SHA-256 digest of the Fact Bank at /.well-known/codex-signature.json — anyone can compute the digest against /api/v1/facts/index.json and confirm the bytes match what we published. Ed25519 cryptographic signing is provisioned in the pipeline but not yet active: the public-key endpoint at /.well-known/keys.json reports status: "no_keys_provisioned" until a signing keypair is registered. Verification recipe lives in docs/REPRO.md.

Verification commitment

  • · Stable rules (PTT brackets, designated agency, MLD, Form B fee): re-verified every 180 days.
  • · Volatile metrics (annual rent cap, SVT rates, mortgage rate, BC Home Flipping Tax thresholds): re-verified every 90 days.
  • · CI gate: any fact past its expires_iso blocks deploys until re-confirmed against the cited primary-source URL.
  • · License: all Codex content under CC BY 4.0 — cite us in your work.
  • · Errata: spot a discrepancy? Email bronson@bronsonjob.com or open an issue at the public repo.

Verification timeline

Most-recently-verified first. Each entry shows the date a human re-confirmed the fact against its primary source.

VOW result caps

Listing search is bounded per the board agreement: GVR Rules of Cooperation §9.19 and the VOW Agreement Schedule B §2.9. Two tiers apply:

  • · IDX (unregistered users): up to 1,500 listings per query, 50 listings per page.
  • · VOW (registered users): up to 500 listings per query, 50 listings per page.

Caps are enforced in three places: the Repliers proxy edge function (per-page and cumulative clamps with structured 422 responses), the Supabase RPCs that back the IDX cache (hard 50-row ceiling), and the front-end UI which mirrors the server's cap state. Direct anonymous SELECTs against the IDX cache table are revoked at the database grant level, so a hostile client cannot bypass the proxy. Last reviewed 2026-05-23 with Timothy Yee.

MLS® ID and brokerage attribution

Every listing displayed on this site carries its MLS® / ListingID and the listing brokerage. GVR VOW Agreement §5.2 / Schedule B §5a mandates the brokerage line; the 2026-05-23 audit confirmed the MLS® ID accompanies it on every surface — map pin popups, search cards, similar-solds tiles on listing detail pages.

Implementation: a single shared ListingAttribution React component renders the pattern across every listing-display surface. A build-time lint scanner (scripts/lint-mls-attribution.mjs) wired into the pre-push gate fails CI if a new listing-card-shaped component is added without using the shared attribution module. When the source brokerage field is missing, the component renders a visible "Listing brokerage unavailable" placeholder rather than silently substituting our own — so an auditor can tell at a glance whether the line is sourced or fallback.

List date & days on market

The raw list date and days-on-market count are VOW-only fields. Anonymous (IDX) visitors never receive them; the server computes a derived freshness label and ships only that label to the public search and listing pages.

  • · NEW — listing is ≤ 48 hours old.
  • · NEWLY LISTED — listing is ≤ 7 days old.
  • · Older listings carry no freshness label.

Enforced in two places: the Repliers proxy strips the raw fields before responding to anonymous traffic, and the Supabase RPCs that back the IDX cache project list_date and days_on_market as NULL unless the caller's JWT matches the VOW gate (signed in, terms accepted, password current). Registered VOW users receive both the raw count and the freshness label on every listing. Reviewed 2026-05-23 with Timothy Yee.

How we measure traffic

We use Plausible Analytics for privacy-respecting page-view and event tracking. No cookies. No IP addresses retained. No personal data collected. No third-party data sharing. No cross-site or cross-device tracking.

We track aggregate events — form submits, phone taps, saved searches, account signups — to understand which content drives leads. We never pass your name, email, phone, address, postal code, or MLS interactions into any analytics property. PIPA and GDPR compliant by default; no cookie banner is required.
