The National Association of Realtors met yesterday at the Association Executives Institute in Dallas to present the Realtor Political Survival Initiative (PSI), a response to a 2010 Supreme Court ruling that effects campaign financing.

According to AgentGenius.com, if approved by NAR’s board of directors on May 14, the Political Survival Initiative could raise NAR membership dues by $40.

Currently, NAR dues are as follows: $30 to legislative/regulatory advisory, $15 to member relationship building, $10 state and local association services, $6 to technology and economic research, $6 to publications, $5 to commercial/international alliances, $4 to legal policy enforcement, and $4 to customer service; $80 in total.

If the PSI is approved in May, NAR membership dues would rise 33 percent to $120, according to AgentGenius.
