You must be licensed by the state you live in to sell real estate. The only difference between a REALTOR and a Licensed Real Estate Representative for Properties of The Villages is the Realtor designation and the $600+/- they had to pay for it. REALTOR IS A DESIGNATION NOT A LICENSE. I know I was a REALTOR in Pa and a LICENSED REAL ESTATE REPRESENTATIVE for Properties of The Villages now retired. As far as ethical sales people go it is your duty to interview them and see who you work well with. All real estate sales people are independent contractors and work differently.
