The home buying process can be overwhelming for both buyers and realtors. The first-time home buyers are often the most vulnerable in this process, which can make them feel overwhelmed.
In recognition of the holiday, NCJAR board offices will be CLOSED on Monday, February 21, 2022.
We will re-open at our regular business hours (M-F 9am-4:30pm) on Tuesday, February 22, 2022.
Social media can be a great tool to connect with loved ones, friends, and potential clients, but how do agents balance time spent connecting without feeling overwhelmed? Check out the award-winning Center for REALTOR® Development podcast episode 67, as guest Harrison Beacher offers strategies to create a comprehensive social media plan that builds a connection with intention.

An appraisal is supposed to be an Unbiased Professional Opinion of a Home's Value. However, recent reports and studies are indicating otherwise for a growing population of buyers and sellers. According to the recent National Fair Housing Alliance Report, “discriminatory bias continues to plague the appraisal industry”.
