What is the .REALTOR generic Top Level Domain Extension?
The new .REALTOR domain extension is launching on October 23, 2014. Registrations of .REALTOR domain names are only available to verified members of the National Association of Realtors (NAR) and the Canadian Real Estate Association (CREA).
Unfortunately, .REALTOR domain names are not available through traditional domain registrars, such as Webnames.ca. Verified members of the NAR and the CREA can learn more about acquiring a .REALTOR domain name via the .REALTOR website at www.about.realtor.
As a possible alternative to the .REALTOR domain extension, Webnames.ca would like to recommend the following domain extensions:
- .REALESTATE
- .REALTY
- .PROPERTIES
- .PROPERTY
- .HOME
