You fight for your clients. We fight for you. About the REALTOR® ACTION FUND. REALTOR® Action Fund (RAF) is the $98 contribution that appears on members dues billing statement. Every REALTOR® is asked to make this voluntary contribution when paying their local Board, C.A.R. and N.A.R. dues. Funds raised through REALTOR® Action Fund are used to support candidates who are sympathetic to REALTOR® issues and toward supporting or opposing issues that impact REALTORS®. As a REALTOR®, you have a vested interest in the government under which you live and work. C.A.R., NAR and SILVAR support the people who make policy on matters affecting your business, which is why we need your help! Believe it or not… only three REALTORS® out of ten do their part to make the REALTOR® voice heard…this must change! There is no way to know for certain what challenges lie ahead, but one thing is clear, we must remain vigilant against potential threats to our industry. And while these dangers are limitless, our financial resources are not! View the 2010 SILVAR PAC Annual Report to see how members’ contributions have helped your industry. There are many levels of participation for REALTORS® to contribute to the REALTOR® Action Fund. Because of the rollout of the REALTOR® Action Assessment, these amounts have changed for 2011. There is the “True Cost of Doing Business” and higher levels of political participation. Whether you’re a new REALTOR® or long-term professional, there is a level of political participation for you. 2011 Levels of Participation RAF Minimum Contribution: $49 (replacing the $59 contribution from 2010) SILVAR’s RAF True Cost of Doing Business: $98 (replacing the $197 from 2010) California Sterling R: $449 California Golden R: $1,549; Annual renewal of $449 NAR Golden R: $5,049; Annual renewal of $2,049 |
