  • NAR CEO on the Value of the REALTOR®

    NAR CEO on the Value of the REALTOR®
    Jun 25 2026

    The National Association of REALTORS® is in a season of significant change.

    In a post-settlement industry, the needs of REALTORS®, brokerages, associations, MLSs, and consumers are shifting quickly. The market is no longer static, and the organizations that support real estate professionals can't afford to stay static either.

    For NAR CEO Nykia Wright, the future of the association starts with a clear question: how does NAR continue to add value in a real estate industry that is actively rethinking its strategies?

    That answer is not as simple as listing benefits, discounts, programs, or resources. A list of benefits does not always communicate a strong value proposition. The real value is in how those pieces work together: advocacy, research, education, events, communications, partnerships, state and local relationships, and consumer education.

    Nykia describes this as "the house." The value does not live in one room. It lives in the full structure.

    In this Best Of episode, we revisit a powerful segment from our conversation with NAR CEO Nykia Wright. She shares her vision for the future of the association, why NAR must evolve with the market, how state and local partnerships fit into the national strategy, and why the ultimate goal is helping REALTORS® get to their next successful transaction.

    You'll learn:

    • Why NAR has to evolve with the real estate industry

    • How national, state, and local associations can work together more effectively

    • Why the value of NAR is bigger than a list of member benefits

    • How advocacy, research, education, communications, and partnerships work together

    • Why consumer education helps REALTORS® have stronger client conversations

  • What Smart Agents Do When the Market Slows Down

    What Smart Agents Do When the Market Slows Down
    Jun 11 2026

    A slower market has a way of revealing what was easy to miss when things were moving quickly.

    When buyers are eager, sellers are confident, rates are low, and transactions are happening with less resistance, momentum can make almost any business feel stronger than it is.

    But when the market shifts, the fundamentals become harder to ignore. Agents have to be more intentional about where their business comes from, how they stay in front of people, how they communicate their value, and how well they can guide clients through decisions that feel more complicated than they used to.

    The agents who use this kind of market well are not simply waiting for rates to drop or for buyers and sellers to become more confident.

    They are using the moment to get sharper. They are strengthening relationships, improving their systems, paying closer attention to their business model, and building the skills that matter most when clients need more guidance.

    In this episode, we revisit three conversations that all point to the same idea: when the market slows, serious agents have an opportunity to stand out.

    You'll hear from;

    • President and CEO of T3 Sixty, Jack Miller: Why slow markets are career-making moments for real estate agents

    • Speaker and Chief Growth Officer at Arrow Capital, Trey Salinas: The agents who are best positioned for long-term success

    • President of RE/MAX, Amy Lessinger: The practical skills agents need in a changing market

  • The Advocacy Work REALTORS® Don't See (and Why It Matters Right Now) w/ Shannon McGahn

    The Advocacy Work REALTORS® Don't See (and Why It Matters Right Now) w/ Shannon McGahn
    Jun 4 2026
    Housing affordability has become one of the defining issues in real estate. Inventory is tight. Interest rates are still shaping buyer and seller decisions. Insurance costs are rising in many markets. First-time buyers are struggling to get in, and even people who already own homes are feeling the pressure of higher costs, limited options, and uncertainty about what comes next. For REALTORS®, this is not just a market problem. It affects clients, communities, transactions, property values, and the long-term strength of homeownership itself. That is why advocacy matters. A lot of what shapes the real estate industry does not happen at the closing table. It happens in policy conversations, tax proposals, housing bills, regulatory decisions, and political debates that can either protect homeownership or make it harder for people to buy, sell, invest, and build wealth through real estate. And sometimes, the biggest advocacy wins are not the laws that pass. They are the harmful ideas that never become law in the first place. From protecting 1031 like-kind exchanges to fighting harmful tax proposals, supporting housing supply, defending private property rights, and keeping real estate issues in front of lawmakers, advocacy plays a much bigger role in the industry than many people realize. In this episode, we're joined by Shannon McGann, Executive Vice President and Chief Advocacy Officer for the National Association of REALTORS®. She shares what NAR is focused on at the federal level, why housing affordability is now a national policy priority, how REALTOR® advocacy works behind the scenes, and why member participation through RPAC matters when the industry needs a voice in Washington. Things You'll Learn In This Episode Housing affordability is now a national policy priority Affordability is no longer just a local market concern. It is showing up in voter polling, political conversations, and federal policy debates. What is driving the affordability crisis, and what solutions are being discussed at the national level? Advocacy protects REALTORS® and property owners Some advocacy wins are visible, but others happen when bad policies are stopped before they become law. How does NAR work to protect private property rights, real estate investment, and homeownership? RPAC and REALTOR® participation matter Real estate policy is shaped by the people who show up, build relationships, and make sure lawmakers understand the industry. Why does member participation matter when REALTORS® need to be heard at every level of government? Guest Bio Shannon McGahn is the Executive Vice President and Chief Advocacy Officer for the National Association of REALTORS®, which represents members involved in all aspects of residential and commercial real estate. McGahn is responsible for managing NAR's Federal Legislative and Political Affairs and Political Representative teams. She provides strategic advice on public policy issues impacting NAR and helps direct its Independent Expenditure and Public Advocacy programs. Before joining America's largest trade association, McGahn served as the staff director for the House Financial Services Committee and, before that, as a counselor to the United States Treasury Secretary. She also held communications roles for three members of House Leadership during her nearly 20-year Capitol Hill career. In addition, McGahn served as Vice President for a D.C.-based public affairs firm and held the same position for a consulting firm focused on grassroots communication in major national media markets. The first woman to hold the Chief Advocacy and formerly Senior Vice President of Government Affairs positions in NAR's 110-year history, McGahn brings with her nearly two decades of experience working with or for the legislative and executive branches of the U.S. government. As she continues her career at NAR, she is focused on working on behalf of America's 1.5 million REALTORS® to promote and protect property ownership for people across the United States.
