Are You Grateful for a Realtor You Know?; Week of Advocacy Recap

Are You Grateful for a Realtor ® You Know?

Do you know a Realtor® that goes above and beyond? The MAR Gratitude Project might be the perfect way to honor them. The MAR Gratitude Project aims to recognize the unsung heroes of the Realtor® community. Honorees will receive a personally signed notecard and "Thank You" tile from the MAR President for their volunteer efforts either within their community or for the Realtor® Association. Nominations will be screened by a group of Gratitude Project Task Force Realtor® volunteers, who will meet monthly to select recipients. Honorees must be Massachusetts Association of Realtors® members and must have engaged in or performed a discernable act of kindness/charity/service outside of their ordinary duties as a real estate professional.

Week of Advocacy Recap

MAR held its very first virtual Realtor® Day on Beacon Hill on June 15-19, 2020. Realtors® from across Massachusetts virtually gathered to advocate for homeownership and private property rights. The event featured a virtual keynote session with legislative leaders and NAR's leading economists. Realtors® also got to meet with their legislators about the key legislative issues affecting the real estate industry and private property. The event gave members the chance to get directly involved at the grassroots level - without leaving the safety of their own home. There were also sessions held for local associations as well as legislative and priorities updates from Justin Davidson, MAR General Counsel and Director of Government Affairs.
