We all understand the value that Realtors® bring to a real estate transaction. We develop forms and contracts to protect the interests of buyers and sellers. We understand the complexities of a real estate transaction and help consumers navigate that process. We have a network of professional contacts who can facilitate a successful buying or selling experience from listing to closing. We adhere to a Code of Ethics and act professionally.

Each of us has a story – or two, or three, or 103 – about that time we helped that special client, in those unique circumstances, find a perfect home, make a difficult transition, smooth over a sticky situation. That’s what the 2017 Convention & Trade Show is about. Sharing our stories to make our value visible. Visit nvarconvention.com to listen to your colleagues’ stories and to add your own. You’re #WorthIt!

Our industry is rife with changes – technologies that offer incredible business development possibilities. Some may feel uncertain about or overwhelmed by the abundance of new tools and business models. But as Charles Darwin purportedly said, “It is not the strongest or the most intelligent who will survive but those who can best manage change.”  

At NVAR, we’re fortunate to have an association ready to embrace that change. We’re exploring technological advances that will help our members stay ahead of the curve. Realtors® always add value to the home buying and selling process. And those who are willing to harness new technologies and skills will see that value increase.
