To edit REALTOR firm information, enter your office's NRDS ID number as the username and the office phone number without dashes (ex.5045555555). If you don't have your NRDS ID number, you can look it up at REALTOR.org, or you can contact Louisiana REALTORS at 800-266-8538.

5) After successful login, a page will appear to edit your profile.

6) Be sure to check that your contact information in the upper left corner is correct. (See Blue Arrow in photo below) Errors may include an incorrectly spelled name, or a wrong address or phone number. Because your contact information comes from the membership database originating from the local REALTOR Boards, changes to your contact information must take place at the Local Board level since the Local Boards are the designated point of entry in the system. Click here for the list of local Boards and their contact info.

You can customize content in up to five headings and adding your own informational paragraphs to appear on your page...

7) Under "Select a heading to modify". Use the drop down menu to select your heading. In the form labeled "Header:" enter the title of the section. In the form labeled "Body:" enter the text of information for that particular titled section. (See Yellow Arrow in Photo to the left)

9) Under the photo upload area, you will see an option to add up to ten hyperlinks to your profile page for use by visitors. To add links, just select a link number from the drop down menu. Once selected, paste the link into the box titled "Link" and add a description under "Description" (this is the text that will display for the link) and then click on "Submit." (See Red Arrow in Photo to the left)

10) To add market coverage areas, select "Market Areas," and in the scroll menu hold down CTRL and click on each city to select. Once all have been selected, click "Submit." (See Red Arrow in Photo to the left)
