Thank you for your NYSAR membership. I’m deeply honored to serve as your 2017 president and look forward to a productive year. Throughout my 17 year membership with NYSAR, I’ve often been reminded of the outstanding value my membership has brought me both professionally and personally. From important networking opportunities and valuable guidance to legislative advocacy, legal information and professional development, NYSAR has played a vital role in my continued success.

As part of our governance structure, nearly 30 committees, working groups and forums composed of REALTORS ® from across the state meet twice a year at the NYSAR Mid-Winter and Fall Business Meetings. The committees examine issues affecting all aspects of the real estate business and formulate policies to be considered by the NYSAR Board of Directors. Attendees find the Business Meetings to be a great opportunity to better understand what NYSAR does, take an active role in the association and network with peers.

REALTOR ® Lobby Day Meet face-to-face with your state legislators to help advance the REALTOR ® agenda and protect your business interests. Sign up online each July to participate in the committees of interest to you and make your voice heard. Committees range from professional standards and legislative policy to housing opportunities, communications & marketing and more.
