CAAR Members Continue Home Ownership & Property Rights Discussions with Key Legislators

Over 15 members of the Charlottesville Area Association of REALTORS® (CAAR) attended a CAAR Day on the Hill on Thursday, January 16, 2020 in Richmond, Virginia.

The CAAR Day on the Hill gave members the opportunity to represent their industry, Association and clients, and influence Virginia housing policy in-person. They met with key legislators and their staff including Creigh Deeds, Rob Bell, Sally Hudson, Emmet Hanger, and Chris Runion.

During these important meetings, CAAR members asked Senate and House members for their support on the Virginia REALTORS® 2020 Legislative Agenda and other bills affecting home ownership and property rights.

On Thursday, January 23, 2020, Congressman Denver Riggleman spoke to the local REALTOR® community. Congressman Riggleman reflected on his first year in Washington and discussed Federal legislation that has impacted home ownership and the real estate industry. Watch the NBC29 coverage of the event.
