Why Become A Member

All members of the Kent Washington Association of Realtors are members of the NAR and are entitled to use the designation REALTOR®.

The Benefits of Belonging

Engagement & Education

We provide continuing education classes and Lunch & Learns on the latest real estate topics, often at no or minimal cost. We also host networking events and membership meetings throughout the year to share important updates, recognize achievements, and connect members.

We also annually recognize members with the REALTOR® of the Year, REALTOR® Hero, and Richard L. Phipps Distinguished Service awards.

Why Become a Member?

Getting your real estate license doesn’t make you a REALTOR®. The terms REALTOR®, REALTOR-ASSOCIATE®, and REALTORS® are registered trademarks of the National Association of REALTORS®.

KWAOR membership means committing to a strict Code of Ethics and Standards of Practice — a pledge to treat every buyer and seller with fairness and integrity. Since 1916, the public has recognized REALTORS® as professionals held to that higher standard.

Beyond a license, a REALTOR® is a member of a professional trade association — in our case KWAOR, the Rhode Island Association of REALTORS® (RIAR), and NAR. Together, these associations work to protect property values and the rights of private property owners.

Remember all REALTORS are licensed, but not every licensee is a REALTOR®.

All members of the Kent Washington Association of Realtors are members of the NAR and are entitled to use the designation REALTOR®.
