Safety Guide Wins National Award

The North Carolina Real Estate Commission was honored to receive the 2004 “Specialty Communications” award from the Association of Real Estate License Law Officials (ARELLO).  The award recognized the North Carolina Real Estate Agent Safety Guide, a cooperative venture of the Real Estate Commission and the North Carolina Association of REALTORS®’ Real Estate Safety Council.  The award was presented to the Commission at ARELLO’s annual conference inPittsburgh.

Based upon a similar publication of the Washington Real Estate Safety Council, the guide contains common sense safety tips for real estate agents.  Since publication in March, more than 20,000 copies have been purchased from the Commission.  Every licensee who takes the 2004-2005 continuing education Update Course will receive a copy together with instruction on how to apply the helpful information in their day-to-day real estate practices.

For information on how to purchase the Safety Guide, see the order form on page 7 of this Bulletin, or the Commission’s website, www.ncrec.state.nc.us.
