It’s NAR “Designation Awareness Month”!

I didn’t even know until I got this spam e-Pro ad plea for more money email.

Dear Member,

In honor of THE NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS®’ Designation Awareness Month, NAR is extending a special offer to members who enroll in the e-PRO® certification course in November. Register by November 30 at http://DesignationAwareness.eProNAR.comto save $25 off the registration fee and receive an additional two months to complete the course!

It goes on and on.

What exactly is the point in a “Designation Awareness Month”? Does the “Pro” in “e-PRO” have TO BE IN ALL CAPS?

If you’re interested in getting the e-PRO designation at the reduced price of $334 (save 25 dollars!) more info is here.

• About NAR Wisdom

  This weblog was created out of frustration. Frustration with the NAR. They seem almost completely out of touch with today's market, and the needs of real estate agents and real estate consumers alike.

  There is a lot of discussion out there in the real estate blogging community about the NAR. It is scattered across the Internet, and sometimes difficult to find.

  I'd like to have a spot where those thoughts and opinions can be collected, analyzed and discussed in an open atmosphere.

  Anyone is welcome to comment, or add a post. I understand some don't feel comfortable expressing their true feelings about the NAR with their name attached. Anonymous comments and contributions are OK.

  If you'd like to contribute a post, just register at the link in the footer. All registered users have "contributor" status.

  NOTE: This weblog reflects the opinions of its contributors only. We do not remotely claim to speak for the entire NAR membership.
