This was something interesting I learned today: Realtist or Realtor?
Do you know the difference between the terms, realtist and realtor? Many of us understand that a realtor is a person who works in the real estate business. This individual is typically a member of a local and/ or national board of real estate agents. But what about a realtist?
The realist was also a person who worked in the real estate business and belonged to a local and/or national board of real estate agents. No, I didn’t make an error and repeat myself. There is a distinct difference, one is Black and the other, White. The realtist was the African American who represented persons interested in buying and selling property. The great racial divide created this terminology. Eventually, the separate organizations became one and the term, realtist, disappeared.
