A Realtor is a licensed real estate agent that belongs to the National Association of Realtors. It’s one of the largest trade groups in the entire country. They’re held to a higher set of standards and adhere to a code of ethics. Not all real estate agent are Realtors,  but most are. When hiring an agent, ask if they’re a licensed real estate agent. Some Realtors can also be brokers. Unfortunately, people misuse these terms all the time. There is a huge difference between being an agent and being a broker. Brokers typically manage the office and take care of daily operations; they might even own the entire business. Agents work underneath brokers as sales people.
