Join us for a photographic recap of Illinois REALTORS® at the 2019 Public Policy Meetings in East Peoria.
Members came together to share ideas, pool resources and devise strategies to help protect private property rights for consumers and the real estate industry.
They learned about the negative effects of potential rent control legislation, they celebrated the announcement of 2019 REALTOR® of the Year Mike Drews and created podcasts for fellow REALTORS®. They shared information about programs that will support students interested in science and technology careers, could create jobs in Illinois and help attract investors and residents to the state.
