    Decoding Real Estate: Licenses vs. REALTOR® Membership – What Everyone Should Know

    Have you ever heard someone mention a "REALTOR® license"? If so, you’re not alone! It’s a common misconception, and it’s time to set the record straight. Spoiler alert: there’s no such thing as a specific REALTOR® license. Even more surprising, only about 52% of licensed real estate agents and brokers in Florida are members of the National Association of REALTORS® (NAR).

    This blog post will break down some key differences between a real estate license and REALTOR® membership, clearing up confusion and offering valuable insights for consumers and both new and experienced agents.

  • How Veterans can still have 100% of their buyer's agent fees covered
    2024/06/21

    Send us a text

    The 2024 national lawsuit against the real estate industry is resulting in the removal of a long standing benefit to our American Military Veterans. We find that appalling and discuss our immediate solution to this travesty in this episode. Professional representation has been available to all buyers for decades. It's been paid for by the listing brokerage and wrapped up in the cost of the home that a buyer was purchasing. That equates to the buyer actually paying for all of the commission in their mortgage or in cash when they bring the money to closing.

    Click here for more details on how Steve Martin Homes Group is tackling this issue head on.
