Interested in REALTOR®
Membership?
Membership in the REALTOR® organization is a professional distinction that places you among the top 25 percent of all agents licensed to practice real estate in Alabama. Alabama REALTORS® membership requires that you have an active Alabama real estate license, and your broker is an Alabama REALTORS® member.
Only those accepted as members may use the registered trademark term REALTOR®, an industry mark that symbolizes one’s personal commitment to real estate as a career pursuit and sets you apart from the non-member real estate agents and brokers in the state.
Membership Options
