The term "Realtor" is a designation awarded to certain people by the National Association of Realtors. The NAR is a private trade organization that is not a Government agency. Being a Realtor has nothing to do with being licensed by the state to sell real estate. But, the fact is that very few of the Villages agents are Realtors. However, many of them are licensed by the state of Florida to sell real estate. Being a Realtor and being a licensed real estate agent are two entirely different things.
