About WCBR
Founded in 1916, the Westchester County Board of REALTORS®, Inc. (WCBR Inc.) is a not-for-profit trade association representing more than 7,000 real estate professionals doing business in Westchester County and the surrounding region.
The term REALTOR® is a registered mark. It refers only to those licensed real estate brokers and salespersons who hold membership in a REALTOR® organization such as ours, who agree to be held accountable to a strict Code of Ethics, and who also agree to periodic ethics education and other professional instruction that is required by the Board.
WCBR provides a wide range of services and programs to its members and to the general public. These include:
- Together
with the Putnam
County Association of REALTORS®, WCBR owns and operates
the Westchester- Putnam Multiple Listing Service, Inc. a corporation
that manages a large database of available properties listed by REALTORS®
in Westchester, Putnam and Dutchess Counties. Information about these
properties is available to the general public on a number of Internet
real estate sites including www.realtor.com,
(www.realtor.com/westchester)
and www.LOHUD.com.
- WCBR publishes extensive statistical information about and analysis of Westchester’s and Putnam’s housing markets based on data from the multiple listing service.
- The Board operates the School of Real Estate, one of the largest real estate education centers in New York, providing continuing and general education to REALTORS®, and real estate licensing courses to the general public. Courses are available in classroom settings as well as on CD-ROM and on-line.
- The Board maintains an arbitration and ethics hearing service for resolving disputes between REALTORS® and complaints by customers and clients against REALTORS®. (How to file a complaint)
- The Board aggressively advocates for legislation and regulation to facilitate home ownership opportunities, trouble-free real estate transactions, lower ownership costs, sensible development, and other real estate issues that are in the public interest.
