The National Association of Realtors (NAR) does far more than represent agents; their advocacy shapes the very foundation of American homeownership. From your tax return to market stability, NAR’s legislative reach impacts every homeowner and professional in the industry.
Protecting Your Investment
NAR fights to keep homeownership affordable by defending critical tax benefits:
- Mortgage Interest Deduction: Lowering the ongoing cost of owning a home.
- Capital Gains Exclusions: Protecting your profits when you sell your primary residence.
Ensuring Market Stability
By supporting Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, NAR ensures that long-term, fixed-rate mortgages remains available. They also push for expanded mortgage credit, ensuring qualified buyers aren’t locked out by overly restrictive lending.
Building for the Future
Their influence extends to the “bricks and mortar” of our communities, advocating for:
- Housing Supply & Zoning: Reforming laws to address the national shortage.
- Flood Insurance: Keeping coverage accessible and affordable.
- Infrastructure: Supporting the development needed for new housing.
NAR isn’t just about commissions—it’s about the future of where we live and work.
