About Dearborn Realtist Board
We are the Dearborn Realtist Board (DRB), The Chicago Realtists. The Dearborn Realtist Board is the oldest African American Real Estate Trade Association. Established in 1941, the area where African Americans resided was a community in Chicago called Dearborn which stemmed from 22nd St on the north, south to 63rd St, east to the Lake and west to Wentworth St. This area is where our founding Presidents established their office and the name Dearborn Realtist Board was formed.
The Dearborn Realtist Board's mantra is "Democracy in Housing". We are at the forefront of economic development in housing in the African American community.
The Dearborn Realtist Board, Inc., is necessary to address the Real Estate Professional and Community's need for expanding the understanding and realization of housing and economic opportunities within the field of real property for all people.
The Dearborn REALTIST Board is the local chapter located in Chicago, IL who embrace the ideals and mission of “promoting Democracy in Housing”. While our name suggests an organization of Real Estate Brokers, it is a professional real estate organization which includes membership from multiple disciplines in the real estate industry.
