Realtists Not Realtors

Your article, “Minority Realtors Back Fair Housing Proposal,” is blurred with two major errors.

First, the heading, “Minority Realtors,” is inappropriate. The term realtor is a registered trade name for another real estate association. Minority Real Estate Brokers, (or Realtists) Back Fair-Housing Proposals, would have been most proper.

Second, the membership of the National Assn. of Real Estate Brokers Inc. is approximately 5,500, not 1,000, as printed.

We are small, comparatively speaking, but very effective in advocating the minority real estate interest.
