What Our Members Are Saying…
| The reasons I switched to SDAR is that... I like SDAR’s long term business goals, the way the short term association is run, that SDAR is looking at the future of the real estate business, role of the REALTOR®, MLS, and associations in general. I’m also impressed with the high professional standards and the quality of employees, that all events are well planned and professionally executed, and the media coverage and exposure is exceptional. This gives the entire association and REALTORS® the level of credibility that a trade association should show the public. |
Maria Weiss
Coldwell Banker REALTOR® |
| “I just wanted to let Janie’s supervisors know that she did a tremendous job helping us transfer brokers last night, at a crucial time for our company. She displayed great customer service and did not leave until the application was processed and our agents were able to access their MLS with no issues at all! She is extremely knowledgeable, patient and was a great help with this whole ordeal, which I was expecting to be a nightmare! Thank you SDAR for your assistance with this! Elite Premier Properties is very grateful!” |
Gina Arreola
Administrative Assistant with Benjamin Management Group, Inc. |
| “I just wanted you to know that I just received the nicest compliment about you from an Agent. They were treated disrespectfully by another Association, and, when speaking with you, lauded praises about how professional you were, and how you treated them with such kindness. You are a compliment to the San Diego Association of REALTORS. Thank you, as always, for all that you do!” |
