TOPIC: What Didn’t Happen Matters: Colorado Advocacy Wins REALTORS Need to Know About
LOCATION: SMDRA Event Center
SPEAKER: Brian Tanner, VP of Advocacy, Colorado Association of REALTORS

SESSION INFORMATION: Join us for the June Power Lunch as Colorado Association of REALTORS VP of Advocacy Brian Tanner delivers a behind-the-scenes look at one of the most impactful legislative sessions in recent years.

From defeating proposed policies like a vacancy tax and taxing land at its “highest and best use,” to protecting property rights and housing opportunities across Colorado, this session will break down the real issues that could have directly impacted REALTORS, homeowners, investors, and the future of housing in our state.

Learn what happened under the Gold Dome, what was stopped before it became law, and why advocacy work matters more than many REALTORS realize. If you’ve ever wondered what CAR is fighting for on your behalf – this is the lunch you don’t want to miss.

Power Lunches are offered as a complimentary benefit for SMDRA members, and lunch will be provided on your behalf. Because lunch counts are reserved in advance, registration is requested although walk ins will be allowed.  If your plans change, we kindly ask that you cancel your registration at least [24 hours] in advance so we can adjust our counts and extend the opportunity to another member.  No-shows or late cancellations may impact your ability to register for future complimentary events.

Thank you for your consideration and for helping us make the most of this member benefit, we look forward to seeing you there!
