Buyers & Sellers
Whether you are buying or selling your home or property, the process requires time, effort, experience and skill. A REALTOR® can lend a helping hand throughout the entire process and help you make an informed decision.
CGBR provides members with resources to succeed and advocate for private property rights.
Although both REALTORS® and real estate agents can help you throughout the buying, selling, or investing process, only REALTORS® are members of the National Association of REALTORS®. NAR membership separates REALTORS® from real estate agents who do not subscribe to a code of ethics or have access to the educational, business and market information advantages of their REALTOR® counterparts. There are 17 articles in the Code of Ethics that a REALTOR® must follow. Through this Code, Realtors® are providing consumers with a promise to protect and promote their best interests throughout the entire home buying, selling or investing process.
