National Association of REALTORS® (NAR)

Definition: A national trade association for real estate professionals. Its REALTOR® membership marks identify members, and members are subject to its Code of Ethics.

Example

A licensed professional joins the REALTOR® association structure and becomes eligible to use the appropriate membership mark.

Keep the distinction clear

NAR membership is different from a government-issued real estate license. The association is not FREC and does not issue Florida real estate licenses.
