- “What is the MIAMI REALTORS PAC Investment, and do I have to pay it?”
The MIAMI REALTORS PAC is an investment that provides a voice for REALTORS® by supporting candidates and issues that are important to the industry and your livelihood. As the saying goes, “if you’re not at the table, you’re on the menu.” Your investment is voluntary, but we highly encourage you to do so because the PAC saves you money and advocates for private property rights!Do you want to hear some of our recent WINS with the help of the PAC?- MIAMI Realtors was successful in getting the DBPR Secretary to revoke the emergency powers of condominium associations, once again allowing our members to regain access to units in buildings.
- Realtors advocated for online notaries and Florida passed a law allowing notaries to verify signatures virtually. Incredibly, this law took effect on Jan. 1, 2020. Talk about great timing!
- Commercial leases just got easier as the legislature passed a bill to eliminate the dual signature requirement for witnesses on a commercial lease.
- Realtors are once again protected as the state allocated $500K to combat unlicensed real estate activity.
- Realtors advocated and voters approved a permanent extension of the 10% property tax cap on non-homestead properties – saving business owners from a reassessment and huge increase. This is so valuable right now during the pandemic.
- “When is the last day before I get a late charge and am considered ‘late’ “?
Your renewal is due upon receipt, and your payment will be considered late on August 4. At that time, you will incur a $50 late fee, and your MIAMI services/education, MLS, and Supra access will be suspended until you contact us with payment.BACK TO THE TOP
