Midyear Meetings Update

The NAR Midyear Meetings Are Going Digital

The National Association of REALTORS ® (NAR) Legislative Meetings and Trade Expo is scheduled for May 11 through May 16. Usually, this event, sometimes called the “Midyear Meetings,” takes place in Washington, DC. However, in response to guidance from the federal and local governments, the meetings will be held virtually this year.

This is a great opportunity to get to know fellow REALTORS ® over the internet while maintaining the social distancing that will help keep everyone safe. And now, you can check it out from the comfort of your own home!

The virtual experience will include, among other components: • Committee meetings • Key sessions • Elections • Coordination to secure alternate avenues for participation for state and local associations

If you’ve already made arrangements to head out to the area, check out the information below regarding payment and refunds: • Registration: The majority of registrations required no fee and will be cancelled. Individuals who paid for the meetings, expo, pre-conference courses or special events will be refunded in full. This will be an automated process, and you will not need to request a refund. Refunds may take up to 60 days to be pro- cessed back to your credit card. An email confirmation will be sent upon cancellation of your registration.

• Hotel: Those who booked a hotel through NAR will have their reservation automatically cancelled; no deposits have been processed.

• Airfare: Please contact your airline or travel agency as soon as possible and seek a refund or credit.

The details of the virtual event are still emerging, but as REALTORS ® , it will be so helpful to get a chance to connect with each other using technology while recognizing that plans and details can quickly change.
