Certified Real Estate Negotiator FAQ
How to become a Real Estate Negotiator (REN)?
Any person beyond the age of 18 years is eligible to be certified as a Real Estate Negotiator (REN). However, he must be attached with a registered firm on a FULL TIME BASIS. He must then attend a two days course called Negotiator Certification Course (NCC) by any approved training providers (as listed in BOVAEA website). Application can then only be made with BOVAEA thru the registered firm by using the prescribed form together with the letter of employment/engagement and NCC certificate. Once it is approved by BOVAEA, a REN tag will be issued and delivered to the registered firm.
What is REN Tag?
REN Tag is an identification tag issued to real estate negotiator (REN). It contains all the information including their name, photo, IC no, REN No, company name, company registration no, quick respond code (QR) and security features. This tag must be worn by the REN at all times during their conduct of business.
Can a company use their company tag and substitute it as REN Tag?
It is mandatory for all REN to wear the REN tag during the course of doing business and it cannot be replaced with any other company tag. It is an offence for someone to imitate and produce something similar to BOVAEA REN Tag.
