Sites not listed in this category:

  • Associations with a narrow geographic focus (for example, local or municipal real estate boards) should be submitted to the Regional branch according to the city or town which they cover.
  • Associations with a specific professional focus (for example, agent-only associations or appraiser associations) should be submitted to a more specific category.

Consulting

Real estate agencies and agents will NOT be listed in this category.
Individual Realtors and agencies should submit sites to Regional in the real estate category in the locale in which the business resides.

This subcategory lists firms operating on a consultancy basis in real estate-related matters; including valuation, REITs, land use, urban planning, corporate property investment, etc.

Please read the following subcategory definitions carefully. We ask that you choose the best subcategory for your site and submit to that subcategory instead of in the broader Real Estate Consultants category.

If you submit it under the broader Real Estate category, what is likely to happen is that an editor for Real Estate will give it a cursory look and send it to a subcategory without reviewing it. Then, you will have to wait while the editor from the subcategory reviews your site. Save yourself the time and get listed faster: choose an appropriate subcategory to start with, we are dealing with a serious backlog here.

If you function as a trainer or management consultant to real estate agents or brokers, please list your site under the Business/Real_Estate/Education_and_Training category, or Business/Management/Education_and_Training.

Sites offering products, services, or information designed to enhance the appearance of real property or prepare it for sale, should be submitted to the Home section.

Sumbitting your site to the wrong category will seriously delay your site's addition to the directory

Thank-you for your cooperation and assistance.
