Advocacy & Legal
RPAC
RPAC supports pro-REALTOR® candidates. RPAC is nonpartisan and contributes to and works with candidates who are RELATOR® allies, regardless of the letter behind their names. In fact, RPAC is the largest political action committee in the state to be recognized as nonpartisan. Of your RPAC contribution, 70% is used to support state and local candidates in your area, while 30% is used to support federal candidates.
Since 1969, the REALTORS® Political Action Committee (RPAC)has promoted the election of pro-REALTOR® candidates across the United States. The purpose of RPAC is clear: REALTORS® raise and spend money to elect candidates who understand and support their interests. The money to accomplish this comes from voluntary contributions made by REALTORS®. These are not members’ dues; this is money given freely by REALTORS® in recognition of how important campaign fundraising is to the political process. RPAC doesn’t buy votes. RPAC enables REALTORS® to support candidates that support the issues that are important to their profession and livelihood.

Tax Law
- There’s a reason many see homeownership as a vital part of the American Dream, especially when examining the way our country gathers revenue. In general, the U.S. tax code is structured in favor of those who own real estate property, through provisions such as the mortgage-interest deduction for home owners and the ability to depreciate qualified leasehold improvements for commercial buildings, as just two examples. Other measures supporting real estate investment include the like-kind exchange rule that allows investors to defer capital gains taxes on the sale of real estate property. The National Association of REALTORS® works vigilantly to protect property owners and the real estate industry whenever changes to the tax code are proposed. Learn More
