NAR 360 is an hour-long update and overview of National Association of REALTORS® (NAR) conference activities. Some of the reports included:

National results with REALTOR® Party efforts

RAPAC and Arizona REALTORS® raise and spend money to elect candidates who support and understand real estate issues and vote to protect Arizona homeowners—your investment makes a difference! At the national level, fundraising was highly successful, with a 28% increase in participation. NAR supported 429 House candidates and 36 Senate candidates; 430 succeeded for a 94% success rate.

Also, 11 out of 12 independent expenditure campaigns were successful. One example is Kyrsten Sinema’s reelection campaign here in Arizona. Sinema has a strong record of supporting REALTOR® issues, including private property rights and the Mortgage Interest Deduction. She was reelected by a large margin.
