Illinois REALTORS® Government Affairs Directors Neeley Erickson and Tom Benedetto recently returned from the National Association of REALTORS® GAD Institute, where they connected with colleagues from across the country and dove into key policy issues affecting the real estate industry.

In this podcast, Neeley and Tom share what they learned—and how it applies directly to the work your GAD team is doing right here in Illinois. From legislative trends to community-level advocacy, they highlight how national conversations are shaping local strategies.

Listen to the podcast to hear their top takeaways and how your Illinois REALTORS® advocacy team is working to protect private property rights and support the REALTOR® community statewide.
