The San Francisco Association of REALTORS® (formerly the San Francisco Real Estate Board) was founded as a nonprofit association on February 6, 1905, when 33 of San Francisco’s leading real estate agents adopted a constitution and bylaws.
Prior to the organization of the Association, chaotic conditions existed in the real estate business in San Francisco, reflecting similar conditions elsewhere. In order to deal more effectively with such problems, responsible traders of real estate in San Francisco established rules of conduct governing relations between brokers and the public. Later, the California Real Estate Act was enacted, while, on the national level, the National Association developed a Code of Ethics governing relations among brokers throughout the country.
On July 29, 1949, 44 years after its establishment, the San Francisco Association of REALTORS® was incorporated as a nonprofit corporation under the laws of the State of California. The corporation continues to be known as the San Francisco Real Estate Board, although it adopted the dba San Francisco Association of REALTORS® in 1994. Throughout its 103-year existence, the Association has enjoyed a distinguished history of accomplishment. Today, representing more than 5,000 real estate professionals in the San Francisco area, the Association welcomes the opportunity to provide continued service to its members, the community and the public at large.
