Message from the President

Welcome To Your Board's New Website.

Our Website Committee, headed by Ryan Antrop, has been working diligently for several months with a local Technology firm to develop a new website for the Northern RI Board of REALTORS. We trust you're going to be as excited as we are about our new look and the many new features your website offers.   As stated previously, one of your leadership's  primary commitments for the future is to make more information available to assist you in your daily work.   Additionally, we want to present all our members in a more attractive venue to your clients.

Hopefully, many of you seized the opportunity to attend the Launch Party for our new Website on March 8th at Twin River.  Members were invited to update their personal profiles to ensure all website users can access up-to-date information.  While the initial phase of the website development is nearly complete, there are many additional features to come.  We'll be keeping you posted and you will have many opportunities to contribute to the website so that we can offer ongoing enhancements.  For instance, we live in a beautiful state with dramatic, scenic landmarks and landscapes.  We welcome your photos of such treasures for posting consideration on our website.  We will also be updating and adding links continuously to make your daily visits to the website a treasure trove of useful information.  Plus, there's more to come that we're keeping under wraps at the present time.

Take a moment to express your thanks to our colleagues on the website committee who helped make this important member benefit a reality:  Doreen LeBlanc, Deb Smith, Linda Delach, Nancy Denelle, Joe Luca, Susan Stamford, Anastasia Kaufman and Gregory Richard, Jr., Lee Corona and Ryan Antrop (Chairperson).

If you haven't become familiar with the new publicity campaign of the National Association of REALTORS, use the website to find out more about Home Ownership Matters...to People, to Communities and to America.

Spread the word.
