Diversification of Services: Adding probate real estate services to their portfolio allows agents to diversify their offerings and adapt to changing market conditions.
CPS Protects the Consumer: NAR Code of Ethics, Article 11 states that "Realtors are obligated to provide their clients with competent services within the scope of their licensing."

According to the U.S. Census Bureau’s projections, the older adult population will double between 2010 and 2030. As the population of America ages, probate courts will necessarily see an increase in the types of cases that they process – guardianships, conservatorships, elder abuse protection petitions, and matters pertaining to estates.
