In an effort to reduce waste and maintain cost-effective delivery of the REALTOR® Magazine, the National Association of REALTORS® has reduced the number of print magazines being mailed since 2023.

Members have the option of having their print magazine sent to their office or home. For those who still want the print version, the field "Preferred Publication" in the Member record in the M1 database at nar.realtor, then navigating to "My Account" determines where the magazine will be sent. If "Home" or "Member Mail" is slected, one copy of the magazine will be sent to that address.

For "Preferred Publication of Office" (street or mail), the magazines will be sent to the office in bulk depending on the number of members in that office who selected "Print and Preferred Publication" of one of the office addresses.

The allocation of print magazines is based on company size:

• Six magazines to offices with six to 50 agents
• 12 magazines to offices with 51 to 100 agents
• 20 magazines to offices with more than 100 agents
