2025 NAR COMMITTEE APPOINTMENTS

Congratulations to the following members who were appointed to serve on 2025 NAR Committees! Thank you all for representing your fellow Nebraska REALTORS® at the national level!

HELP US REACH OUR RRF GOAL!

In light of recent natural disasters the REALTOR® Relief Foundation (RRF) needs your assistance. We need two more Nebraska Local Associations to donate to RRF as well as an additional $790 dollars donated directly to RRF.

RRF has helped us in Nebraska on three different natural disasters and we need to help pay it forward for other communities who suffer from these emergencies.
