HGAR President Anthony Domathoti attended the NAR RPAC President’s Circle Conference held from Feb. 24-27 at Nassau, Bahamas.
I recently returned from the 2022 National Association of Realtors RPAC President’s Circle Conference, and I must say I was once again blown away by the advocacy efforts at every level of our association. Words cannot express my gratitude for our Realtor community. We came together to fight for what’s right and just in America and in the world. We protect the American Dream and are champions for good and freedom.
It was a tremendous opportunity to hear the latest on NAR priorities and
initiatives as well as from the excellent speakers and panel discussions that were part of the three-day conference (Feb. 24-27) held in Nassau, Bahamas. Thank you to all investors, big and small who helped elect Realtor-championed candidates. A great big thank you to our NAR President 2022 Leslie Rouda Smith for organizing a great conference. I had the privilege of hearing leaders of both political parties. Thank you so much to our state and local association leadership for encouraging us to be involved in giving back to our industry.
