RAR’s Government Affairs Program
The Government Affairs program at the Richmond Association of REALTORS® is dedicated to promoting housing opportunity, protecting private property rights, and fostering economic development and a pro-business environment conducive to the real estate profession. To accomplish these goals, the professional staff at RAR works with RAR’s Legislative Committee and RPAC Trustees to:
Monitor local, state and federal public policies that affect property rights, as well as other issues relating to the business of real estate
Raise, with the help of REALTOR® volunteers, Political Action Committee (PAC) funds to assist candidates who support the real estate industry
Meet with elected officials to present our members’ views and opinions on relevant issues and legislation
Generate opportunities for REALTORS® to interact with local, state and federal officials
