Association staff and Realtors® from across the globe walk the “red carpet” to NVAR’s Fairfax headquarters, where they will receive a tour of the building, a presentation from NVAR staff and lunch for the bus ride back to the Midyear Legislative Conference in D.C.

FOR THE SIXTH YEAR RUNNING, NVAR hosted an annual open house for attendees of the National Association of Realtors® Midyear Legislative Meetings. Realtors® and association staff members from across the country and around the globe boarded buses from Washington, D.C. on May 16 to view local landmarks before arriving at the NVAR Fairfax headquarters. Represented countries and territories included Portugal, Spain and Puerto Rico.

Showcase guests listened to presentations from NVAR staff members, who shared information about some of NVAR’s successful programs and services that the visitors could take back to their association leadership.

NVAR was represented for the third consecutive year at the Midyear Trade Expo – the only local association offered a booth by NAR organizers. Expo attendees viewed digital displays highlighting NVAR programs, took selfies with “Social Media Steve,” interacted with NVAR leadership and staff, and had the opportunity to win prizes.

On a guided bus tour from D.C. to the NVAR building, showcase attendees stop at the Iwo Jima Memorial in Arlington.
