The REALTOR VIP Alliance Program At Your Service, Every Day

While being a member of NAR provides REALTORS? with the backing of America?s largest trade organization, membership also gives them access to a host of hands-on benefits to help them with the day-to-day details of running a successful real estate business and achieving balance in their personal lives. NAR?s Realtor VIP? Alliance Program serves as the conduit between Realtors and the services and companies that can help boost their bottom line.

?NAR realizes better than anyone the everyday challenges and concerns of Realtors,? says NAR?s Vice President, Strategic Alliances and Member Benefits, Mary Stark-Hood. ?As the largest and most influential professional association in real estate, NAR is committed to helping its members become more successful. And we strive to offer a program that members will use that ultimately helps keep their dues low.?

A free benefit of membership, the Realtor VIP Alliance Program allows Realtors to save up to thousands of dollars each year by taking advantage of offers available from partners in the program.

The program also gives Realtors access to more than 30 Realtor VIP strategic alliance partners, recognized as leaders in their respective industries and who are committed to providing NAR members with special offerings tailored to their needs. Among the Realtor VIP Alliance partners are: FedEx, Hewlett-Packard, Hertz and Nextel Communications. Newest partner, Affinity Financial Corporation, Inc. provides members very competitive rates on money market accounts and CDs.

?Our Realtor VIP Alliance Program partner offerings are grouped into two solutions?discounts and services,? explains Stark-Hood. ?These discounts and services are designed to provide useful and practical support that help Realtors in the everyday needs of their business.?

In addition, two special offers for Realtors from two Alliance Program partners are being extended through 2005: Realtors may save up to $114 immediately with offers from Chase Card Services and American Home Shield. These two savings combined are more than a Realtor?s annual NAR membership dues.

Says Stark-Hood: ?In the future we will be adding more categories and partner offers to expand this benefits program for our members.?
