GRAR Class and Event Schedule

Introducing FOREWARN- Your Newest Membership Benefit!

Get to know your prospects in a matter of seconds! By entering a name or a telephone number, members will be able to obtain information such as:  addresses, vehicle registrations, phone numbers, property records, criminal background, bankruptcies, judgments, liens, foreclosures, and evictions.

In order to take advantage of this new service, members are required to attend a short training session at GRAR.  The session will focus less on how to use the Forewarn app (since it is pretty self-explanatory and user friendly) and more on the do’s and don’ts of usage to avoid liability.

• Friday, July 17 at 10:00 a.m. (via Zoom)

The Zoom link will be sent to all event participants via email. Please RSVP to be sure that you receive your log in info! Cost is $5.00.

Please note: If you are already registered for New Member Orientation, you do not need to register for Forewarn. Training will be included during New Member Orientation

Volunteer Opportunities at the Grand Rapids Home for Veterans

The Staff and Residents of the Grand Rapids Home for Veterans are thrilled that the REALTOR® and Affiliate Members of GRAR are planning to interact with them over the course of the year!

Many of the veterans do not have family in the area and they long for social interaction and the sense of community that comes from having guests volunteer at the Home. This is an excellent opportunity to give back to those who have given so much.
