This training helps prepare theses new agents to be better qualified and knowledgeable. Through their association membership, Realtors have access to member discounts, business resources, and professional development opportunities. One of the Realtor organizations most effective resources is advocacy, and this applies to the agent’s business interests as well as to protecting the interests and rights of the local property owners. By attending the Ethics class and participating in an orientation, these agents learned about personal and homeowner safety, multi-list, electronic lockboxes, advocacy, education, professionalism and the numerous benefits available to them as Realtors.
