How the National Association of REALTORS Supports the Path to Homeownership

June 24, 2025 by Bob Elliot

June marks National Homeownership Month, a time to celebrate one of the most important milestones in life, owning a home. While many organizations work to make homeownership accessible, one of the most influential is the National Association of REALTORS® (NAR). As the largest trade association in the U.S., NAR plays a critical role in promoting, protecting, and expanding homeownership opportunities for all Americans.

With over 1.5 million members, NAR is not just an association for real estate professionals, it’s an advocate for buyers, sellers, and communities nationwide. During National Homeownership Month, it’s the perfect time to highlight how this organization supports current and future homeowners.

Championing the American Dream
At its core, NAR believes that homeownership is the foundation of strong communities and personal financial stability. Through its advocacy efforts, NAR works with lawmakers, regulators, and industry leaders to protect property ownership rights and ensure housing policies support both buyers and sellers.

Whether it is pushing for tax incentives for homeowners, supporting fair housing laws, or promoting financial literacy, NAR plays a hands-on role in shaping the policies that directly impact your ability to buy and keep a home.

Educating and Empowering Buyers
Education is essential for a successful homeownership journey, and NAR provides a wide range of resources to help buyers navigate the process with confidence. Their affiliated site, Homeownership Matters, offers articles, tips, and updates on housing-related issues, while Realtor.com connects consumers with market data, listings, and professional guidance.

NAR also promotes the importance of working with a REALTOR, a professional who not only abides by a strict code of ethics but is also trained to advocate for your best interests throughout the transaction.

As we celebrate National Homeownership Month, NAR reminds buyers that they do not have to go it alone, having a trusted expert by your side makes the path smoother and more secure.

Promoting Housing Equality
NAR is a strong proponent of fair housing and equal opportunity. The association has launched several initiatives, including Fairhaven, a fair housing simulation training program for REALTORS®, and ACT!, a program focused on accountability, culture change, and training to combat discrimination in real estate.

In alignment with National Homeownership Month’s focus on expanding access, NAR’s commitment to inclusivity helps ensure that the dream of homeownership is achievable for individuals and families from all backgrounds.

Advocating for Affordability and Access
Through ongoing research and outreach, NAR also addresses the challenges many potential buyers face, such as affordability and limited inventory. By sharing market trends and working with policymakers, NAR supports solutions that aim to expand housing availability and promote sustainable ownership.

Celebrating National Homeownership Month wouldn’t be complete without recognizing the work of the National Association of REALTORS®. Their dedication to advocacy, education, and equality continues to make a lasting impact on communities across the country.

If you’re considering homeownership or simply want to learn more, NAR’s resources and network of professionals are a great place to start.
