My report this month I will focus on my attendance at the 2017 NAR REALTORS® Legislative Meetings & Trade Expo in Washington. Nearly 10,000 REALTORS® and others attended the meetings and made visits to their members of Congress to advocate on behalf of homeowners, commercial property investors, and strong communities.

 On Monday and Tuesday, I was in classes to become certified to teach REBAC® class using the license that FAOR now holds. This will allow our Association the ability to host and teach NAR approved designation classes.

We had a full day on Wednesday beginning with the NAR Federal Issues Briefing at 7 a.m. This allows our government affairs staff to bring the members information on our positions on proposed Federal laws.
