2025 NAR Annual Report |
2026-2028 NAR Strategic PlanNAR stands at a pivotal moment—one that demands strategic clarity and a renewed focus on member value. The work began by studying the missteps of the past, diligently learning from them, and building a plan to move forward. Grounded in industry insights and shaped by more than 100,000 voices across each level of the association and the industry, our new Strategic Plan will modernize the organization and transform the member experience. To chart the course for NAR’s future, the Strategic Plan must consider the dynamic context of today: a diverse set of stakeholder expectations, ongoing industry and economic pressures, and internal organizational constraints.
