Welcome to Courses for Realtors

Are you a Realtor?

Not every broker is.

A Realtor is an active member of the National Association of Realtors (NAR). To become a Realtor, a real estate agent or broker must join NAR and adhere to its strict Code of Ethics and Standards of Practice.


The term “Realtor” is a trademarked designation, and not all real estate agents are Realtors. Only those who are NAR members can use the title.  About 50,000 (out of 80,000) North Carolina brokers are Realtors.


So while all Realtors are real estate professionals, not all real estate agents and brokers are Realtors. The main difference lies in NAR membership, its Code of Ethics, and its training requirements. See below.

Fair Housing Requirement for Realtors

The National Association of REALTORS® requires that its members complete two hours of fair housing training every three years as a condition of REALTOR® membership, including one training option that is of no cost to members.
(Read more here: https://www.nar.realtor/breaking-news/new-fair-housing-training-requirement)

The three-year cycle coincides with NAR’s existing Code of Ethics training requirement (see below) and begins in 2025 and ends on Dec. 31, 2027.

If you are a NC broker who is also a Realtor, you may want to take my four-hour fair housing course which will satify the NAR requirement and also earn you 4 hour's NCREC elective credit. This course is $49 until June 10th, 2025.
