Investing in Your Future

Get Involved

A thriving real estate industry is made up of more than just REALTORS®. Businesses that are affiliated with the industry play a vital role in supporting agents and consumers with the resources and education they need to successfully buy, sell, and maintain a home.

As an Affiliated Partner, there is another way you can show your support for the REALTORS® and consumers that support you.

At any given time, our local, state, and national law makers are making decisions on legislation that can greatly impact the real estate industry. Many of these laws have the potential to decrease or eliminate homeownership incentives and add unnecessary, burdensome regulations which make it harder for REALTORS® and affiliated businesses to do what they do.

That's why your involvement in the REALTOR® Party and investment in the REALTOR® Political Action Committee in integral to helping maintain the health of the real estate industry.
