The most valuable square inch in real estate.

Why wear your REALTOR® pin? Because three out of four consumers would choose to work with a REALTOR® rather than an agent who is not a member.* Simply wearing your pin lets everyone know that you’re a REALTOR®, a member of the National Association of REALTORS®. It makes a first impression that shows potential clients how knowledgeable and valuable you are to their real estate transaction. Proudly wear the pin and always place the REALTOR® logo on your materials. It’s a small thing, but it can make a big difference.

THE WCR SCHOLARSHIP IS NOW FULLY ENDOWED AND PRESENTING SCHOLARSHIPS TO STUDENTS AT AUBURN UNIVERSITY'S COLLEGE OF ARCHITECTURE, DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION - by Ashley Durham

East Alabama Business Resource Group

In 2006, the East Alabama Chapter of the Women’s Council of REALTORS was formed. At that time, the members saw a need for a tour of homes in our community, as many surrounding communities were offering. In conjunction with the National Association of REALTORS, our goal was to encourage buyers to realize that real estate is local, and offer the consumer a way to view a snapshot of what types of homes in varying price points were available in their local market. Over the years, the tour of homes has transformed into an excellent resource for builders to display their creativity and new building concepts each year, while still portraying to the consumer housing options in a variety of price ranges and increase market interest and activity during the height of the selling season.

While the tour of homes raises funds to keep the Women’s Council of REALTORS operational, it also gives members an opportunity to give back to the overall industry financially. Members sought to encourage females to establish a career in a field related to the housing industry, therefore, we reached out to the College of Architecture, Design and Construction and established the scholarship fund! The members of WCR feel that it is important to encourage growth in education of industry professionals, and with an industry that has so few female professionals, it was the goal of the members to help encourage young students to gain an education that will last a lifetime and help build a community!
