MARPAC

If Real Estate is Your Profession, Then Politics is Your Business.

Why MARPAC Matters

MARPAC is one of the largest and most powerful political action committees in the state of Mississippi. And that’s great news for the REALTOR® Party and REALTORS® like you.

Your MARPAC dollars are used to elect pro-REALTOR® leaders who think like you do and have your best interests in mind. Additionally, MARPAC sponsors political events, hosts legislative receptions and works with other business organizations to take public positions on issues that affect Mississippi REALTORS® and the communities we serve.

MARPAC funds also help local Member Boards address key issues that shape the real estate business in their area by supporting local candidates who prioritize housing, real estate and property rights issues.

Give A Little, Get A Lot: Invest In MARPAC

Whether you are a Fair Share investor, a Golden R investor or anything in between, your MARPAC investment is the best way to support pro-REALTOR® priorities at the local, state and national levels. It’s easy, affordable and just plain smart. Here’s what you need to know about where your investment goes:

Where does your MARPAC investment go?

  • To educate, support and elect policy makers who support REALTOR® issues
  • To protect the professionalism of the industry
  • To improve the business climate and to make the quality of life better in our communities
  • To protect private property rights for all Mississippians

How does your MARPAC Investment Affect Local, State and National Politics?

  • Local Level – 10% of what each Local Board raises for MARPAC is set aside for that board to use in local elections. Electing pro-REALTOR® candidates for offices such as mayor, city council, county supervisor, etc., is just as critical as electing pro-REALTOR® candidates at the state level.
  • State Level – Issues such as Commercial Broker Liens, Impact Fees, AMC Regulation, Compensation for Broker Price Opinions, Protection for Licenses in Square Footage representations and Mortgage Fraud are just a few of the battles that have been waged in recent years at the Mississippi Legislature. Having MARPAC funds to help REALTOR®-supported elected officials is the key to having our message heard.
  • National Level – Communicating with our federal officials on issues such as mortgage debt forgiveness, support for patent troll legislation, flood insurance legislation and the protection of the mortgage interest deduction is vital to our industry.
  • Thanks to your MARPAC investments we’re able to send a clear, united message about REALTOR® priorities in Mississippi.
