When Is a Real Estate Agent a REALTOR ® ?
All real estate agents are not REALTORS®. A real estate agent is a REALTOR®
only when he or she
becomes a member of the NATIONAL ASSOCIATION of REALTORS®
― "The Voice for Real Estate®," the world's largest professional
association. The term REALTOR® is a registered collective
membership mark that identifies a real estate professional who is a
member of the NATIONAL ASSOCIATION of REALTORS® (NAR) and
subscribes to its strict Code of Ethics. Founded in 1908, NAR has
grown from its original nucleus of 120, to more than 1 million members
today. NAR is composed of REALTORS® who are involved in
residential and commercial real estate as brokers,
salespeople,
property
managers, appraisers,
home stagers, counselors and others who are engaged in all
aspects of the real estate industry. Members belong to one or more
of 1,700 local associations/boards and 54 state and territory
associations of REALTORS®, and can join one of our many
institutes, societies and councils. Additionally, NAR offers members the
opportunity to be active in our appraisal and international real estate
specialty sections. REALTORS® are pledged to a strict
Code of
Ethics and Standards of Practice. Working for America's property
owners, the NATIONAL ASSOCIATION of REALTORS® provides a
facility for professional development, research and exchange of
information among its members.
How
will you know your agent is a REALTOR®, a member of the
National Association of REALTORS® ? You'll know by looking
for the REALTOR® "R" on business cards, yard signs and when
members are wearing their REALTOR® pin. Ask if your real
estate agent is a REALTOR®. The National Association of
REALTORS® can be found online at www.REALTOR.org.
