What a week for our association leadership team!

They've been in Washington, D.C. meeting with lawmakers, legislative staff, and other local, state and national association leaders as part of NAR's 2026 REALTORS® Legislative Meetings to advocate for concrete solutions to our nation's housing affordability crisis and to create new pathways to homeownership.

As part of their visit to Capitol Hill, they got a chance to hear from North Carolina Senator Thom Tillis and to talk with Representative Valerie Foushee's staff.

We appreciate everyone taking time out of their busy schedules to do this important work!
