When you present a new listing at a REALTOR® Update Meeting, the Association will send a letter to your client letting him or her know that you marketed the property to numerous peers and colleagues in the industry.

The Aurora Sentinel will publish that new listing free of charge for one week.

These Benefits are two more ways the Association strives to serve you.  Attendance to these beneficial meetings is just $1, except on the first Friday of the month when there is no charge and breakfast is provided by an Affiliate member.  All AAR members are welcome.
