Independent Real Estate Brokers Association
We make real estate a breeze!
About IREBA
Larry Chettle
President
Dear Independent Real Estate Broker
This is just a short letter to let you know IREBA has members all across Canada, and we are now looking for a Broker in your area.
As you know, the real estate profession has been changing rapidly in the past 15 years. It now appears the smaller real estate offices are becoming very successful in their market areas. With the implication of computers and the Internet, the future for real estate brokers and their staff looks exciting
IREBA believes that a referral network, for non-franchise real estate brokers and their sales staff, would improve their bottom line. This web site will be the main communication point for all IREBA members and their customers to preview all your listings in one place, at their convenience. As of today, the site is under construction, but you should check back to see how we have grown.
IREBA also offers the comfort of being able to discuss problems that generally occur with being independent. With OREA attempting to take over the profession, 1996/97 year may very well prove to be a very interesting time.
If you are an IREBA member, we thank you for your 1996 membership. If you are not a member of IREBA of Canada, you can become a member by calling us at (905)333-0325 or E-Mail: lchettle@ireba.ca Ask for a free information package.
Our Services
Real Estate Done Right
In 1990 Larry Chettle of Chettle House Realty Ltd. of, Beamsville, Ontario set out to create an organization of truly Independent Brokers. After meeting with several brokers in the southern Ontario area, and with great input, a constitution and common logo emerged.
The association has drafted policies that embody the strongly held philosophy to respect the independence and entrepreneurial spirit of the individual. A board of elected directors holds regular meetings to discuss current events about IREBA and to help guide the Association
Nonprofit Organization Goals
As a nonprofit organization, our goal is to help provide the tools so YOU AS A BUSINESS PROFESSIONAL WILL GAIN. Realizing that at every turn, a Broker is faced with expenses that take away from profit, IREBA has a modest initiation fee of $200 annually, which includes a Brokers home page and five (5) listings. IREBA would like to emphasize that the directors, and anyone else who contributes their time, does so voluntarily, at no expense to the membership. In this fashion, the organization can be maintained at a minimum expense to the membership.
Rely on Expertise
IREBA presently provides for the use of the membership a common logo. We encourage you to use this logo in your advertising material including business cards, advertisements, and signs. At all times the decision as to the extent of use is completely in your hands. Being associated with a national organization will give YOUR INDEPENDENT BROKERAGE GREATER RECOGNITION.
IREBA has come of age.
