The 3-Way Agreement

By joining HLAoR, you are now a member of the national, state, and local REALTOR® Associations. These three entities operate under what is called the "Three-Way Agreement".

The term “Three-way Agreement” refers to the structure of the REALTOR® organization. With this agreement, the National Association grants each association and board the right to control the terms “REALTOR®” and “REALTOR-ASSOCIATE®” within its territorial jurisdiction. This structure allows the REALTOR® organization to use its combined resources (both human and financial) and influence to:
  • have a unified, powerful voice in shaping public policy,
  • set recognized standards for ethical real estate practice,
  • and contribute to the betterment of the real estate industry.

Make an Impact with TREPAC

If you're not at the table, you're probably on the menu.
A voluntary $35 investment in TREPAC goes a long way in helping not only real estate, but your clients. TREPAC uses these funds to fight bills that harm real estate and property owners, and to support REALTOR®-friendly canditates on the federal, state, and local levels. TREPAC is bi-partisan, and considered a purple party. It's not a red problem, or a blue problem. It's a purple solution. When you go to pay your next invoice, don't uncheck the box, and help protect property rights.
