Making homeownership accessible to more people starts with adding to the nation’s severely limited inventory. The U.S. is facing an underbuilding gap of 5.5 million units, equaling a $4.4 trillion underinvestment in housing.

America’s tax law can and must do more to promote homeownership, build stable communities, and boost economic growth.

Technology is reshaping every part of the real estate industry—from artificial intelligence and predictive analytics to digital transactions, cybersecurity, and emerging PropTech solutions.

That's why the National Association of REALTORS® created NAR Tech & Innovation, a hub designed to connect REALTORS®, brokers, MLS leaders, technology companies, investors, and innovators. Its mission is simple: bridge the gap between technology and real estate by providing education, industry insights, networking opportunities, and access to emerging technologies that can help REALTORS® better serve their clients.

Through webinars, innovation events, technology showcases, startup competitions, and the REACH accelerator program, NAR is helping identify and support the next generation of tools that may shape the future of our industry. More than 300 real estate technology companies have participated in REACH since its launch, bringing new solutions to agents, brokers, and consumers alike.

Association Intelligence means knowing where to find the resources that help you stay competitive. NAR Tech & Innovation is one more benefit working to ensure REALTORS® are prepared not just for today's market—but for what's next. Check them out here: NAR Tech & Innovation

Over the last few months our 2025 GIAR Leadership Academy participants have been installing Pet Scanner Stations in parks across the community to help aid in the identification of lost animals. It was just one of the projects the participants worked on in groups throughout the year! We're so proud of the work that our members do not only for their clients, but for our communities as a whole! Becca and Lisa even got a wonderful recognition from Glynn County Commissioner Rafolski!

One of the greatest strengths of the REALTOR® organization is that leadership development exists at the local, state, and national levels — creating opportunities for members to grow, serve, and help shape the future of our industry.

At the local level, our Leadership Academy helps members build foundational leadership skills, learn how associations operate, and develop meaningful professional relationships within our community.

At the state level, the Georgia REALTORS® Leadership Academy has spent nearly 20 years identifying and training future leaders from across Georgia who demonstrate volunteerism, integrity, and a passion for service.

And at the national level, the National Association of REALTORS® Leadership Academy focuses on cultivating leaders who are more than just volunteers — individuals who have committed themselves to service, sought out leadership experiences, and developed a deep understanding of the real estate industry and its challenges.

This leadership pipeline — local, state, and national — is Association Intelligence in action. Each level works together to help members grow professionally, strengthen their leadership abilities, and prepare them to guide the future of organized real estate.

Leadership doesn’t begin when you get a title. It begins the moment you decide to get involved.

Real estate doesn’t just help people buy homes, it powers entire local economies. According to the latest data from the National Association of REALTORS®, a typical home sale in Georgia generates an estimated $121,570 in total economic impact through industries like lending, construction, moving services, furnishings, renovations, and more. It’s another example of why housing matters far beyond the transaction itself.
