MNR’s Governmental Affairs Team Supports Homeowners and Realtors®
As we observe both Advocacy Month in May and National Homeownership Month in June, it’s a good time to remember that homeownership is an engine for Minnesota’s economy and a source of stability, wealth, community, and opportunity for our citizens. That’s why Minnesota Realtors’® (MNR) Governmental Affairs (GA) team is dedicated to advocating for the real estate industry, fighting for property owners’ rights, and working to help more Minnesotans own homes. We do this by:
- Partnering with legislators to support bills that advance homeownership and help brokerages and Realtors® thrive and grow
- Opposing laws that hurt our industry and homeowners
- Working with lawmakers and other advocacy groups to find solutions to Minnesota’s shortage of affordable housing
Tapping the best brains in real estate
Because our members are at the center of everything we do, we turn to their expert guidance and insights through the GA Committee. This volunteer panel of leading real estate professionals reviews legislation and recommends public policies that benefit our industry and homeowners across the state.
