JOIN NAR’S BROKER INVOLVEMENT PROGRAM

For State and Federal Calls for Action

The Broker Involvement Program provides Broker-Owners/Managers a quick and effective tool to enlist agents in bringing REALTOR® Party Issues to the attention of state legislatures and Congress.

Automatically send agents the Broker Call for Action

If you have 100 or less agents, the Broker agrees to allow NAR to automatically send all Broker CFAs with the Broker’s name and company logo to their agents.

For Broker-Owners with 100 or more agents you may choose Auto–participation or review and approve.

NAR will alert the Broker by email when there is a Broker CFA. The Broker’s email message and the CFA will be available for review on the Broker Portal, where the Broker can approve or reject sending the Broker message and CFA with their name and logo.

The REALTOR® Party is a powerful alliance of REALTORS® and REALTOR® Associations working to protect and promote homeownership and property investment.
