When rent control legislation was introduced in the state of Nevada, the REALTORS® opposed it with help from an Issues Mobilization Grant that supported a comprehensive ‘Truth About Rent Control’ campaign. The videos, website, editorials, and advertising dispelled the narrative of ‘the greedy landlord,’ and re-framed public understanding of the state’s majority mom-and-pop rental industry.
Calling on the REALTOR® Party’s Advocacy Everywhere program for a last-minute campaign against a bill restricting transparency on the taxable value of residential properties, Arkansas REALTORS® managed to apply enough pressure in a five-hour period to result in the bill’s withdrawal.
The Middle Tennessee Association of REALTORS® expanded the power of NAR’s Planning & Zoning course by engaging elected officials and community members in a roundtable event the day before. The informative dialogue about growth, infrastructure, and zoning issues helped to facilitate communication and get stakeholders on the same page as the county’s Comprehensive Plan took shape.
