Have you ever wanted to serve on a highly fulfilling, mind altering, life changing RANW committee? (I may have exaggerated a bit but the networking connections and sense of accomplishment are nothing to sneeze at.) NOW IS YOUR CHANCE!!
Beginning in January, we will be offering membership positions in the majority of our current committees. Plus, we will have two new committees we are very excited about: the Communications Committee and a YPN (Young Professionals Network).
Why participate on a RANW committee? How about networking, helping your communities, strengthening your industry, protecting property rights for the public and possibly becoming a future leader of the RANW organization? Just to name a few!
Please click on the link below if you are interested. There, you will find committee descriptions and you will be able to submit which committees you are most interested in.
Once we hit the deadline for applications, applicants will be submitted for committee appointments which will be released early January.
APPLICATION LINK HERE.
We would love to work with you!

RANW MLS is thrilled to announce a COMPLIMENTARY PROACTIVE SAFETY AND LEAD INTELLIGENCE service for all MLS subscribers!

The FOREWARN application gives an agent the ability to gain instant insight on a prospective client (within seconds, without exposing any protected class information) using only a phone number!  Don’t have a phone number… you can also search by name. 

Instantly verify:

  • Identity (first name, last name, alias, and age) 
  • Phone numbers (residential and mobile history)
  • Address history (rental, ownership, and associated addresses) 
  • Financial indicators (bankruptcy, lien, judgement, and foreclosure history)
  • Property records (nationwide property ownership history)
  • Criminal records (nationwide criminal history search)

REALTOR® Designation Awareness Month is recognized annually in the month of November. The National Association of REALTORS® encourages members to increase their professionalism, marketability, proficiency, and income through pursuance of an officially endorsed NAR designation or certification.
There is an official NAR designation for practically every specialty area in the real estate industry. Designations and certifications are awarded by each affiliated group upon completion of required courses. Click here for a complete list of designations.
