- Welcome to the unofficial start of summer! Our REALTOR® members work long hours and are in need of a break! Sixty percent of members work 40 or more hours a week and 17 percent work 60 or more hours a week. Among appraisers in the industry, 38 percent work more than 60 hours a week.
- Among REALTOR® members, 13 percent own a vacation home.
- Among recent buyers in the market, 11 percent of home buyers bought a vacation home in the last year.
- Perhaps this weekend both recent buyers and our members will get a well needed break.
- And of course a special thank you on this Memorial Day weekend to all of the members who served in the military. Two percent of the association membership were members of the military before becoming REALTORS®.
