Real Estate Agents

As the joke goes, everybody is an actor/actress in LA. It's either real estate agents or massage therapists in HI. :lol:

Seriously, I wonder what the general public think, what percentage of real estate agents are members of the local real estate boards and the National Ass-ociation of Realtors in HI? (One has to be a member of a local board in order to be a member of NAR, and once member of a local board than HAS TO BE a member of NAR too, so the one question covers it all.)

I figure its low so I guessed the 55%.

I wouldn't even guess on percentages, but I seem to remember our realtor was a member of the Hilo board (even though her office is Waimea). She doesn't advertise it on her website. She is proud of her CRS credential, which is a whole other thing of course.

CRS (Certified Residential Specialist) is the third highest designation one can earn in the business. The GRI (Graduate of Real Estate Institute) and the CRB (Certified Brokerage Magager) are the two highest ones.

I'd vote but I'd figure it woul dbe somewhere over half. Are you going to let us know at some point? How many real estate agents are there on the Big Island?

I figured I will wait a month or two before revealing the secret. :lol:

There are about 3,000 licensed agents on the Big Island, and about 20,000 in the whole State.

I took a stab at 55%, but I have no idea.

I'm surprised only 8 people voted so far.

Haven't the foggest! Voted 75%! Just a wild guess!
By the way, John, your clients who recently bought in the RSC are using the contractor I just used (and reccomended to them) on our remodel! They're really nice people!!

Thank you for the recommendation. They really are nice people, I have worked with them for 14 months until I found this great deal for them!

I would have voted earlier but I was reading the poll wrong. I was reading it as 1 point 55%, 2 point 65%, 3 point 75%, 4 point 85% and 5.95% :lol:

Now that I see they are numbered 1-5 I can make a better educated guess.
