Realtor.com rises from the ashes of the Realtors^® Information Network (RIN), a previously failed attempt to launch a proprietary national network that would be the platform for the electronic real estate transaction.

Fortune ranks NAR as one of the top 25 most influential lobbyists in Washington.

NRT, Inc., a Cendant-owned brokerage holding company, proves that sizes does matter when it, with a steady diet of acquisitions and franchisees dominates the national rankings to become the worlds’ largest real estate brokerage company - a position it continues to hold to this day with more than 1,000 company owned offices. In 2004 it became the first company ever to post a closed sales volume of over $200 billion.
