GEORGETOWN — The Sussex County Association of Realtors announces its involvement in the National Association of Realtors Spire mentoring program, an initiative created to drive inclusivity in the real estate industry through mentorship and education which aims to inspire individuals from diverse communities to explore career opportunities in real estate.

This initiative provides mentees with exposure beyond the traditional day-to-day business operations, such as marketing, appraisal, IT, property management, and financing guidance.

Additionally, mentees will have access to live educational events, networking opportunities, one-on-one mentorship meetings, and a tailored online platform.

National Association of Realtors Spire, launched in 2021 with nine pilot regions across the U.S., including Trenton, New Jersey, aims to empower individuals to learn the fundamentals of the real estate industry, cultivate generational wealth through property ownership, and foster education.

As facilitator of the mentor program, National Association of Realtors will provide resources and tools to help participants define expectations, set objectives, develop an action plan, and complete a formal mentoring agreement.

Mentors who participate in the program can play a leadership role in addressing inequity, networking with peers, and increase their impact in the industry.

Sussex County Association of Realtors encourages those who are interested in pursuing a career in real estate to learn about the diverse paths available in the industry.
