Frequently Asked Questions

What is a REALTOR?

Membership in the National Association of REALTORS entitles licensees to use the term "Realtor" in their marketing materials. However, the most valuable benefit is the REALTOR Code of Ethics, which creates the true value that makes the real estate business a profession. It ensures that, in business involving REALTORS, the client's interests are always protected.

2. Are all licensed real estate agents REALTORS?

No, a licensed agent has to have membership in the National Association of REALTORS.

3. What is the procedure for listing a property?

First of all, call your Realtor of choice. You should ask about the services offered and how your property will be marketed before making a choice. They will set up a time to view the property that you want to sell, do a market analysis on it, and then discuss the value with you so you may arrive at a market listing price. Then, the Realtor will complete the necessary listing agreement with price, length of listing, etc. and submit it to you for your signature.

4. Can I go to a different company from the one whose sign is on the property for a showing of the property?

Yes, most real estate offices co-broke with other offices and are more than happy to share the listing. Our office offers Buyer Agency Services to represent the Buyer’s best interests in transactions with other Brokers.
