As a quick update to our previous communication, ShowingTime will begin rolling out two-factor authentication (2FA) on August 25, rather than August 18 as previously communicated.
This change will only affect members who sign in directly to ShowingTime using a ShowingTime username and password. Members who access ShowingTime through their MLS and do not use ShowingTime credentials to sign in will not be affected.
Beginning August 25, affected members will be prompted to set up 2FA when they sign in. They’ll have 30 days from their first prompt to complete setup before it becomes required for access to ShowingTime.
Property Shield’s single sign off is currently disabled but that will not stop you from being notified.
We will update you once SSO is updated.

🛡️ Property Shield Goes LIVE August 17!
SCWMLS is excited to announce that Property Shield officially goes live on August 17, 2026!
As the first MLS in Wisconsin to bring this technology to our members, we are taking another important step forward in protecting our listings, our members, and the consumers we serve.
Property Shield is an AI-powered monitoring and protection platform designed to help identify potential listing fraud, unauthorized use of listing data, brand impersonation, and other online threats. By proactively monitoring activity across the internet, this service gives SCWMLS and our subscribers another layer of protection in an increasingly complex digital environment.
What happens if you receive an alert?
We have included a short educational video to walk you through what to do if you receive a Property Shield email alert. The video will explain how to review the alert, understand the issue identified, and take the appropriate next steps.
Please take a few minutes to watch the video so you’re prepared when an alert comes your way.

This is more than just another member benefit. It’s an investment in protecting our MLS ecosystem, our members, and consumers from the growing threat of online real estate fraud.
We are proud to lead the way as Wisconsin’s first MLS to launch Property Shield—and we’re just getting started.
Property Shield. More protection. More proactive monitoring. More peace of mind.
