WMLAR Staff: Jodi Thelen, Director of Member Services

REALTOR® Membership:

Per the National Association of REALTORS®, “The term REALTOR® has one, and only one, meaning: REALTOR® is a federally registered collective membership mark which identifies a real estate professional who is member of the NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS® and subscribes to its strict Code of Ethics. The single most important rule governing the MARK is that it may only be used to convey this meaning, and never used to convey another meaning ……

Members are licensed to use the MARKS only in connection with their real estate business. According to Article III, Section I of the NAR Constitution, the term “real estate business” includes: real estate brokerage, management, appraising, land development, or building. The MARKS may not be used in connection with any other business or personal activities in which a member is engaged.”

For example, a real estate agent is a REALTOR® when they become a member of the National Association of REALTORS®, agrees to its Code of Ethics and other rules which include membership in that agent’s state Association and Local Association of their choice.*

Make Our Marks Remarkable:
The term REALTOR® is not only a trademark owned by NAR and protected by federal law, it is also a valuable membership benefit.
