The Communications Committee of the REALTOR® Association of Greater Fort Myers and the Beach, Inc. was formed in 2006 to help educate the general public with regard to the contributions REALTORS® make to the community and to assist the Florida Association and National Association in their REALTOR® image campaigns aimed at overcoming the lackluster image REALTORS® have recently had in the press.  We as REALTORS®, give back to the community in a multitude of ways and abide by a strict Code of Ethics. This is the message we need to get out. Back in 2006 we started getting this message out to the public by strategically placing ads in the Fort Myers News Press derived from good news stories collected from you - our membership. Samples of the ads that we have placed are posted on the left for your reference. Do you have any good news stories you would like to share? If so, fax them to Doreen Herring at the Association office at 239-936-2836. We would love to see your story highlighted in The News Press. In addition, you can help by being sure your advertising is professionally presented and that it meets with the Code of Ethics and Florida Law. We can make a difference one story and one ad at a time!
