REALTORS® Political Action Committee (RPAC)
The REALTORS® Political Action Committee (RPAC) is one of the strongest advocacy organizations in the nation. And there’s one reason for that: our members. RPAC recognizes that an industry that shies away from politics is an industry whose future is unstable and uncertain. Your investments in RPAC helps to make us players on Capitol Hill and with lawmakers everywhere across the country. Your continued involvement in the organization allows us to shape and define the size, scope, and success of our industry. Together, we’re protecting the future of real estate in America. Your investment ensures:
- Leaders across the country can pour through legislation and evaluate how new bills and proposed regulations will impact you and your clients.
- RPAC representatives can effectively lobby lawmakers in Washington, D.C. and in state legislatures throughout the U.S.
- We can defend critical real estate-friendly policies like the Mortgage Interest Deduction (MID) and the 30-year mortgage.
- The 100% health insurance deduction for independent contractors is protected.
- Programs like FHA single-family insurance and VA home loans remain available, attainable, and effective for prospective homebuyers everywhere in America.

I first invested in RPAC in 2003, two years into my career as an Association Executive. 17 years later, I remain a proud RPAC Major Investor because I believe investment is key to ensuring the protection of property rights and our work in fostering strong communities.
I was inspired to increase my commitment while serving on a key NAR committee with REALTORS® with 10-30 year investment commitments. Hearing stories of their longevity in the business and how it has brought them such sense of purpose to protect our industry and the work of bringing homeownership to millions inspired me to join the President’s Circle.
Continued investment in RPAC is essential to the industry, private property rights, and homeownership.
- Anne Gardner, Cape Fear REALTOR® CEO

RPAC MAJOR INVESTORS
When RPAC supports REALTOR®-friendly candidates, we give them a leg up against legislators who have worked against us in the past. For a legislator to have the support of one of the nation’s top PACs, that makes a statement.
More than one-third of the funds NAR receives come from our Major Investors. Major Investors who invest annually are the advocates and political leaders that make up the backbone of RPAC.
*President's Circle: What really sets REALTORS® apart from any other group on Capitol Hill is the President’s Circle program. President’s Circle members are RPAC Major Investors who invest an additional $2,000 directly to candidate and party committees.
