Did you know that not all people who hold a real estate license are REALTORS®?

Both REALTORS® and Real Estate Agents hold a Real Estate License. However, there are differences between the two. A person who calls themselves a REALTOR® is a member of a professional group of licensees located locally, throughout the state and throughout our nation. They make the commitment to further their professionalism by abiding by the REALTOR® Code of Ethics and Standards of Practice.  The REALTOR® Code of Ethics is based on professionalism and protection of you, the consumer.   

When you see the word REALTOR® or the trademarked blocked R, as it is below, know that this is the Mark of a REALTOR®.
