🏛️ Sacramento changed the way I see this industry. I’m not just selling houses, I have to ability to change policy for our state! 🤯
I had the privilege of attending Legislative Day in Sacramento through a scholarship with the South Bay Association of REALTORS® — and WOW was it such an eye-opening experience.
The agenda was packed: real estate policy education, state-level advocacy with the California Association of REALTORS®, and a live look inside our Capitol where we watched local government in action — policies debated, discussed, and voted on in real time.
Some highlights I’ll never forget:
👀 Watching real estate agents from across California actively lobby for our industry at the state level
🤝Connecting with so many great agents making an impact including CAR President and CAR YPN Chair who happen to both be from the South Bay and OC this year!
📚 Learning about hot-button issues that will shape how we practice real estate and how we guide our clients

This experience reminded me that our industry doesn’t just respond to policy — we CAN help shape it. Knowing what’s coming and having a seat at the table makes us better advocates for our clients.
Grateful for the South Bay Association of REALTORS® for this scholarship and for the incredible group I got to learn alongside. THANK YOU 🤩
🙌 HUGE SHOUTOUT to Irma Vasconcelos who was the best mentor and really showed the ropes in Sacramento, you truly made our experience so special 💜
So proud to be our local YPN co-chair this year and can’t wait to get more involved at a state level in the future 🫡
