The REALTOR® Association of Sarasota and Manatee (RASM) was honored at the Florida REALTORS® Political Action Committee (PAC) Annual Awards on January 18 for achievements in PAC fundraising for 2023.

The 2023 housing market for Sarasota and Manatee counties are showing signs of stabilization, marked by a return of housing inventory to pre-COVID levels.

The Florida REALTORS® Political Action Committee (RPAC) Major Investors are industry professionals whose goal is to promote homeownership for all and to protect REALTORS® from burdensome regulations.

RASM is proud to partner with Women's Council of REALTORS® Manatee County and the Women's Council of REALTORS® Sarasota Network for this groundbreaking summit that will leave you feeling refreshed and inspired to be a voice in the industry.

I am pleased to represent our membership as your 2024 REALTOR® Attorney Joint Committee (RAJC) chair in 2024. In this role, I follow in the footsteps of Garret Barnes and Darla Furst, who made significant contributions during their tenures by providing excellent education and informative panels.
