It's a new year and the Advocacy team is ready to go! In this episode, Shannon and Patrick outline the advocacy portion of NAR's new Strategic Plan and discuss our policy goals for 2026, which include unleashing housing inventory, confronting NIMBYism and the growing equity gap, and protecting access to homeownership and REALTOR (R) representation. Building on our 2025 wins, Shannon shares what it will take - from a legislative and grassroots perspective - to increase housing supply and affordability and ensure homeownership is attainable for more Americans.
