In 1991, ten REALTORS® whose main focus was on commercial properties came together to create a venue where commercial real estate was the main focus. Those ten REALTORS® formed the Commercial Division of the St. Louis REALTORS®. By remaining within the St. Louis REALTORS® organization, they gained the best of all worlds; maintaining their connection to the National Association of REALTORS®, the capability of providing services focused on Commercial education, providing Division approved commercial contracts and forms, informing Commercial REALTORS® of licensing requirements, training Commercial real estate arbitrators and mediators, and providing excellent networking opportunities.

The Commercial Division strives for excellence in the services provided to its members and continues to develop new services that will aid in the business of the Commercial REALTOR®. Today, the Division exceeds 600 Commercial REALTOR® members who provide their clients with the information needed to make the best choices about their purchases, investments, and management opportunities.
