About YRD

Logo for Young Realtist Division with the acronym YRD and the full name underneath.

The Young Realtist Division was established in 1996 and re-established in 2018, now headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia. Its mission is to empower youth and communities through financial education, wealth-building, career exposure, mentorship, professional development, and leadership training. The “Young” in YRD reflects multiple paths: members with fewer than five years in NAREB, new professionals with less than five years as agents, and anyone young at heart with a passion for shaping the real estate industry for tomorrow’s leaders.

We also recognize a distinguished advisory committee made up of members who have served NAREB or the industry for at least ten years. Anyone dedicated to supporting the next generation and advancing NAREB’s growth is embraced within this advisory group, regardless of age.
