NAHREP: The Real Estate Market is on the Cusp of the Worst Fair Housing Crisis Since the 1960s

Recent developments pertaining to an industry policy known as the Clear Cooperation Policy (CCP) lay bare an alarming truth: the real estate market is increasingly threatened by forces prioritizing self-interest over the principles of fair competition and consumer protection. While the conflict between business and consumer interests is not new, the stakes involved in this particular struggle are much higher than usual.

NAHREP’s Value Proposition and Statement on DEI

While NAHREP is not a civil rights organization, it has consistently championed the values of DEI. It does not view DEI as social policy but rather a critical business strategy. Like many others, NAHREP aspires to a merit-based society where capable individuals, regardless of race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, or religion, have equal opportunities to succeed.

NAHREP Strongly Supports the Benefits of a Fair and Transparent Real Estate Market

NAHREP is a strong advocate for the National Association of REALTORS® Clear Cooperation Policy, which requires all properties for sale to be listed on the Multiple Listing Service (MLS) within one business day of being publicly marketed. This policy helps ensure all buyers have equal access to available properties, fostering transparency and promoting fair housing in the real estate market.

With America rapidly becoming a majority-minority country, the economic well-being of our diverse communities will be directly tied to the overall prosperity of our nation.
