As a member of NCJAR and the National Association of REALTORS®, you carry a mark of professionalism that sets you apart—the REALTOR® trademark. But did you know that how you use it matters just as much as the fact that you have it?
To protect the integrity and legal strength of this brand, NAR has clear trademark guidelines—especially for those who speak or present at events.
Here’s what every NCJAR member should know:
Always Follow These Rules:
-
Use all caps and the ® symbol every time: It’s REALTOR®, not Realtor or realtor.
-
Include a direct reference to association membership when using the term—mention NAR, your local association (like NCJAR), or the Code of Ethics.
-
Say "member" if you’re not naming a specific association.
Correct Examples:
-
“Maria is a REALTOR® who volunteers with the National Association of REALTORS®.”
-
“REALTORS® participate in their local association’s committees.”
