Recognizing March 26, 2025, as REALTOR Day at the State Capitol.
WHEREAS, The State of Texas is steadfast in its commitment to
private property rights, and since 1920, Texas REALTORS has worked
as a professional association to protect private property ownership
and the rights of property owners; and
WHEREAS, Texas REALTORS maintains its position as the largest
professional membership association in Texas, and its more than
140,000 members are engaged in every aspect of the state’s diverse
real estate interests, including farm and ranch, property
management, and international, residential, and commercial real
estate; and
WHEREAS, Real estate and housing are essential to our state
and local economies, with each property purchase contributing
thousands of dollars through construction, jobs, and expenses; in
2024, the real estate industry in Texas accounted for 17.8 percent
of the state’s gross domestic product, or approximately $469.2
billion; and
WHEREAS, Realtors are grassroots advocates who embody
professionalism in the real estate industry; they adhere to a
strict code of ethics that demands competence, fairness, and a high
level of integrity in their field; and
WHEREAS, As vital contributors to their local towns and
cities, Realtors in Texas are deeply invested, actively engaged,
and dedicated to shaping vibrant, flourishing communities where
Texans live, work, and prosper; to that end, Realtors continue to
demonstrate their incredible abilities to help all Texans achieve
the dream of homeownership; and
WHEREAS, During each Texas legislative session, thousands of
Realtors convene at the State Capitol to meet with their elected
officials and discuss issues that are critical for ensuring that
Texas remains the best state in which to own or lease real property;
now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 89th Texas
Legislature hereby recognize March 26, 2025, as REALTOR Day at the
State Capitol and extend a warm welcome to the visiting delegation;
and, be it further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
prepared for the association as an expression of high regard by the
Texas House of Representatives.
