KEEPING YOU UP TO DATE ON THE THINGS THAT CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE TO YOUR BUSINESS SUCCESS
Every aspect of today’s real estate industry is changing. Technology, the new consumer, regulations, and emerging business models and practices are all impacting your life on a daily basis. Few firms have the resources to monitor these trends and keep their people current with the perfect response. FCBR excels at this function via various industry updates and a training system that is prepared to both inform and prepare you to realize the opportunities of the new real estate environment.
ACCESS TO THE BLUEPRINT FOR THE NEW BUSINESS MODEL
The real estate industry is in midst of a major transition that is impacting every aspect of REALTOR® operations. FCBR is tracking the latest solutions for brokers and agents at all levels both nationally and in the Fort Collins area marketplace.
POWERFUL GOVERNMENT INFLUENCE WHERE IT MATTERS
Each year hundreds of proposals seeking to adversely affect private property ownership and the real estate industry are submitted to local, state and national government agencies throughout Colorado and the United States. Your FCBR investment supports a powerful government affairs program that year after year has successfully defended your right to conduct business.
THE ONLY VOICE THAT COUNTS IS A LOUD ONE
Throughout the history of America the one lesson that has proven itself over and over again is that there is strength in numbers. Your REALTOR® investment supports a local, regional, national and international network that is working to defend and protect the REALTOR® lifestyle every day. Without this protection real estate today would be a far different experience.
FCBR RECOGNIZES THE VERY BEST EVERY YEAR

ETHICAL STANDARDS THAT WORK
The REALTOR® Code of Ethics provides a solid foundation upon which to build profitability, productivity and responsible transactions. Your FCBR investment sponsors an effective environment that supports business standards within the industry through mediation, arbitration and peer review.
