AARE designees must adhere to a strict code of ethics and standards of practice, and complete a minimum of 24 hours of continuing education courses every three years.An auctioneer with the AARE designation has gone the "extra mile" to ensure that he or she offers the highest level of professionalism and most up-to-date information when it comes to selling real estate at auction.
