The North Carolina REALTORS® Political Action Committee (“NC RPAC”) is a non-partisan committee organized for the specific purpose of raising funds to support political candidates of all parties at the local, state and federal levels of government.
NC RPAC exists through the voluntary contributions of members, their spouses, and families of NCAR. NC RPAC was established by NCAR in recognition of the need to increase political activity and awareness among members, and to protect the interest of the real estate industry in the political arena.
You can be a large or small contributor to NC RPAC. However, we encourage every REALTOR® to give at least $25. NC RPAC contributes these funds to the campaigns of candidates at all levels of government. Of the contributions received, 30 percent of the funds are sent to the National RPAC and 70 percent stay in North Carolina to fund local and state candidates. Your voice is heard through the impact of your NC RPAC dollars.
We take great pride in the fact that NC RPAC consistently is the No. 1 business PAC in the state! It is essential that we are able to support the candidates that will fight for REALTOR® issues when elected. REALTORS® are under constant threat of sales tax on your commissions, higher taxes on your business, and increased real estate taxes. Your RPAC contributions are the key to our being able to make a difference in the Legislature.
