Virtual Staging in Yukon

Compliance guide for real estate professionals

Allowed - No Specific Rules

Yukon has no guidance directed to real estate agents regarding virtual staging. The Real Estate Agents Act governs real estate licensing in Yukon but contains no provisions addressing virtual staging or the use of images in property marketing.

⚠️Potential Penalties in Yukon

None specific to virtual staging.

How to Stay Compliant

Clearly disclose all virtual staging

Add written disclosure to your MLS listing description and all marketing materials stating that virtual staging has been used.

Tip: Given Yukon's smaller market, maintaining a reputation for transparency is particularly important—buyers remember agents who were straightforward.

Use watermarks or labels on staged images

Apply visible 'Virtually Staged' watermarks to each digitally enhanced photograph to ensure disclosure travels with the image across all platforms.

Tip: Yukon properties often attract out-of-territory buyers who rely heavily on online materials—clear watermarks ensure disclosure is visible regardless of where images are shared.

Provide original photos alongside staged versions

Include original, unstaged photographs in your listing gallery. This transparency is especially important in Yukon's market where buyers may not always be able to visit properties before making offers.

Tip: Arrange photos so original and staged versions appear consecutively, making side-by-side comparison easy for buyers.

Only add furniture and décor—never alter permanent features

Do not digitally remove property defects, alter structural features, or misrepresent property condition. Virtual staging should only add furniture and décor that buyers understand is not included with the property.

Tip: Maintain detailed records of all original photographs and virtual staging work in case questions arise during or after a transaction.
