A real estate agent is a Realtor® when he or she is a member of the local, state, and National Association of Realtors®, NAR, The Voice for Real Estate and the world’s largest professional association.  The term “Realtor” is a registered collective membership mark that identifies a real estate professional who is a member of the NAR and subscribes to its strict Code of Ethics and they hold themselves to a higher standard of business from other licensed agents in the real estate industry.  Only real estate licensees who are members of the Realtor® Association are properly called Realtors®.
