<strong>2007 NAR Membership Profile</strong> <hr size="1" />
<p>With more than 1.3 million members, the National Association of Realtors (NAR) recently released its 2007 membership survey. Here are some of the findings: </p>
<p><strong>Income.</strong> Agents' median income was $47,700 in 2006, down from $49,300 in 2004. Licensed brokers earned a median income of $73,700 last year, while sales agents earned $34,600. Approximately 42% of Realtors in 2006 with two years of experience or less grossed under $10,000 in 2006, while only 13% of those with three to five years' experience made under $10,000. Realtors with 16 years of experience or more grossed a median of $76,200. The median gross household income for Realtors was $101,700 in 2006, up from $101,400 in 2004. Brokers and broker-associate licensees made $122,000 per household, while sales agent licensees made $92,300. </p>
<p><strong>Age and gender.</strong> Women comprised 59% of the Realtor population. They also claim a larger share in each age group except for those older than 60, where the gender share shifts to a slight majority for males. The median age of agents has remained relatively constant at 51. The over-60 group makes up 25% of the population, while only 10% of Realtors are younger than 35. </p>
<p><strong>Education.</strong> More than 25% of all Realtors have earned a bachelor's degree. Additionally, 10% of agents have graduate degrees, 12% have associate's degrees and 34% have some college. </p>
