2012 NCAR Legislative Meetings: June 4-6

The 2012 NCAR Legislative Meetings will be held June 4-6 in Raleigh. This is an important opportunity for REALTORS® from across the state to provide a unified voice for the real estate industry in North Carolina.  Of note, the Legislative Committee will meet on Tuesday, June 5, from 9 a.m.-10 a.m. and the Legislative Reception will be held that evening from 6 p.m.-7:30 p.m. at the NC Museum of Natural Sciences on Jones Street.  The reception is always well attended and is a great opportunity to talk with your legislators in an informal setting.


Of course, the main event is REALTOR® Day on Wednesday, June 6, as REALTORS® from across the state walk the halls of the General Assembly and visit with their legislators.   There will be a change in the schedule this year as the REALTOR® Briefing and the Legislative Forum will be held from 9 a.m.-10:15 on Wednesday at the Legislative Auditorium on the third floor of the Legislative Building.


A press conference will follow the briefing to officially announce that NC REALTORS® will award five $10,000 fellowships to high performing counseling agencies across North Carolina.  The fellowships are paid for through an NAR Foreclosure Prevention and Response grant.  Following the press conference, REALTORS® will visit their legislators’ offices.  Again, this is an important day as hundreds of REALTORS® make their presence known at the General Assembly and discuss issues important to the industry with the lawmakers who can impact these issues.


Make plans to attend, and be a part of this exciting event!  Contact the office at 919-228-2588 or kimb@tcar.com with any questions.
