The Realtor Party

SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 7, 2015
The REALTOR® Party is a powerful alliance of REALTORS® and REALTOR® Associations working to protect and promote homeownership and property investment. The REALTOR® Party speaks with one voice to advance candidates and public policies that build strong communities and promote a vibrant business environment.
Now more than ever, it is critical for REALTORS® across America to come together and speak with one voice about the stability a sound and dynamic real estate market brings to our communities. From city hall to the state house to the U.S. Capitol, our elected officials are making decisions that have a huge impact on the bottom line of REALTORS® and their customers. Through the support of REALTORS®, the REALTOR® Party represents your interests.
What does this mean in the Iowa City – Coralville area for companies like Lepic-Kroeger, Realtors?  The concept of the REALTOR® Party supported by our PAC donations helps protect home ownership and private investment for our clients.  If our clients are happy and productive, we are happy and productive. We support the deduction of interest spent on home ownership on our clients federal and state income taxes.  We support the buyers’ right to choose the proper and appropriate home inspections to be performed prior to purchase and we support the free transfer of our homes without them being taxed like a Tee shirt that says “I am the Ayatollah of Rock ‘n Rolla” on it!  We support programs that assist first time home buyers with achieving the American Dream of home ownership.
Home ownership is core to the American way of life.  We make sure that REALTORS® and their home buying clients have a voice in affairs that effect these issues.
