you are an active member of NAR.

For California users, you may always update this information by going to the C.A.R. web site at www.car.org. Click on My Account and then My Member Web Page. Include your specializations, cities and personal description.

4. What do I do if the REALTOR® Badge doesn't show up on my web site but I am a REALTOR®?
