Mission &
History
The North Carolina Real
Estate Educational Foundation (NCREEF) was established in
1962. The primary function since its inception has been the
administration of the North Carolina REALTOR® Institute.
the North Carolina GRI program, the first REALTOR® Institute
established in the United States (1947), has long been regarded
as one of the finest in the nation.
In the mid 90's, NCREEF became “the educational arm
of the North Carolina Association of REALTORS® .”
To that end, NCREEF became responsible for all NCAR educational
programs, including professional standards, mediation and
spokesperson training.
NCREF is governed by a fifteen-member Board of Directors.
These REALTORS®, chosen from and representing every region
of North Carolina, are elected at the NCAR Annual Convention
and serve for a period of three years.
Designation Programs and
Contribution Key Focus for NCREEF
Currently, the central focus of NCREEF is providing
RELATOR® designaton programs. Along with the nine, 4-day
sessions of the REALTOR® Institute which are offered at
loations across North Carolina, NCREEF also provides CRS,
CRB, ABR and SRES programming.
NCREEF continues to fund worthy educational projects and NCAR
programs, such as a $125,000 contribution for the up-fitting
of the Kutz Center - a meeting space at NCAR headquarters
used for REALTOR® meetings and educational events. In
addition, NCREEF makes annual contributions to the LeadershipNCAR
program and provides scholarships for local association executives
who wish to attend the AE Regional Conference of the NAR AE
Institute.
