ADVOCACY WE STRIVE TO MAKE IT EASIER FOR YOU TO HELP YOUR CLIENTS

Sign Codes Whether through open house signs, or for sale signs, we fight to make sure you can adequately advertise your listings.

Provide the option of more housing units The lack of available inventory in Snohomish County is directly leading to the lack of affordable homes in our county. Unless more inventory is provided, we face the great danger of no longer being known as a family friendly place to live. We continue to work with our elected officials to find ways to add quality inventory, while still protecting our environmentally sensitive areas.

Fight the regulatory fight

SCCAR County Hill Day Join us for an amazing time of speaking with the Snohomish County Council and the Snohomish County Executive about our year's legislative priorities.

So many land use regulations, who can keep track of them all? We do! We monitor every City Council and the County Council to ensure any regulations that are passed do not become barriers to home ownership.

Member ran - get involved!

Our legislative priorities consist of two joint committees: the Government Affairs Committee, which determines which positions SCCAR will take on various issues; and the REALTOR® Political Action Committee (RPAC), which decides which political candidates to endorse and works on our relationships with our elected officials.

AWARDS & INSTALLATION

Join us at the Tulalip Resort Casino for a wonderful end of the year lunch, while we celebrate our REALTORS® for going above and beyond and installing our new Board of Directors .

Do you know someone who has gone above and beyond in their quest for excellence? Show your support for your colleagues and friends by nominating them for a REALTOR® Association Award.

The REALTOR® of the Year is the highest and most coveted award which can be bestowed by one’s peers. This award is based on the outstanding contributions of a REALTOR® to the local, state, and national REALTOR® associations. The recipient must demonstrate REALTOR® “spirit” and a faithfulness to the principles of the REALTOR® organization, professionalism, and the Code of Ethics.

The REALTOR® Achievement Award is presented to an individual REALTOR® who has made a difference in the Association, either through a single accomplishment or a series of achievements throughout a career in real estate. Since 1999 we have recognized such leadership by naming the REALTOR® Achievement Award in honor of Frank Nardo, who embodied the ideal of REALTOR® achievement through his devotion to our industry and his work for our association as an officer and President.

The Good Neighbor award recognizes a REALTOR® for their extraordinary accomplishments in community service. This should be someone who has made an impact on their community through volunteer work. This award is based on the outstanding contributions of an individual to his or her local community, as well as being an active participant of the local REALTOR® association.

This award is open to a non-REALTOR® associated with the real estate industry, such as employees of title companies, lending institutions, appraisers etc., someone who has demonstrated giving back to the community and excellence in their business.

The Citizen of the Year award is given to a non-REALTOR® individual who works toward the betterment of our community through public service or private actions. We have recognized both public servants and community volunteers with this award.

This award recognizes one of our newer members who demonstrates ingenuity and creativity in their careers. They continue to innovate, reposition, and reinvent themselves and their business model in changing markets. They have taken on a leadership, or mentorship, role to brokers around them and are involved with volunteer organizations within their community.

RESOURCES The Growth Management Act (GMA) comprehensive land use plans as well as the implementing regulations are subject to periodic updates.

Over the next few years, Washington counties and cities, fully or partially planning under the Growth Management Act, will be reviewing their comprehensive policy plans and implementing regulations for needed updates. These plans and development regulations can have a tremendous impact on the real estate industry.
