Realtor 的詞源
Realtor(n.)
1916年,美國英語中的“房地產經紀人”,似乎是從 realty 派生出的代理名詞,由明尼阿波利斯的房地產經紀人查爾斯·N·查德伯恩創造,以區分業務的合法部分; 在20世紀20年代流行起來; 由全國房地產委員會專利註冊爲 Realtor。
The 1916 Convention of the National Association of Real Estate Boards (NAREB) approved the adoption of the term as the official designation of an active member of the Association. In 1920 the District Court of Hennepin County, Minnesota, decided in favor of the Realtors in a case against a telephone directory publisher that had indiscriminately used the word in listings. The court asserted that the word "had never been used in any way whatsoever until so invented" and could thus be used only by those duly licensed by the National Association of Real Estate Boards. Until the Lanham Acts of 1948 changed federal patent regulations to allow protection for registered collective marks, the National Association fought and won sixteen cases on the local and state levels to protect its symbolic property.

1916年,全國房地產委員會(NAREB)的大會批准採用該術語作爲協會活躍成員的官方稱號。 1920年,明尼蘇達州亨內平縣地方法院在一起訴電話目錄出版商的案件中判決支持房地產經紀人,該出版商在列表中濫用了這個詞。 法院斷言,這個詞“從未被任何方式使用,直到被髮明”,因此只能由全國房地產委員會合法授權的人使用。 在1948年蘭漢姆法案改變聯邦專利法規以允許保護註冊集體商標之前,全國協會在地方和州一級上打贏了16起保護其象徵性財產的案件。[傑弗裏·M·霍恩斯坦,“房地產經紀人的崛起”,收錄於《中產階級的歷史探索》,紐約,2001年]
