Be part of the Rally in Tally. Gather at the State Capitol during Great American Realtor Days and make a difference — because when Realtors talk, legislators listen.
Everyone wants to be heard, and Great American Realtor® Days is your chance for YOUR opinions to make a difference in the real estate business in Florida. It’s your chance to stand up for your profession and for homeowners across the state.

Held annually in the state Capitol, Great American Realtor Days, or as we like to call it, GARD, gives you the opportunity to travel to Tallahassee and shake hands and meet face-to-face with lawmakers before they weigh decisions that will impact how you do business.

Florida Realtors® 2025 Great American Realtor Days is scheduled for March 4-6.

You’ll be there to make sure our elected leaders have the right information before voting on legislation that could hurt your bottom line, threaten the growth of your business, or make it harder for Floridians to buy their dream homes or sell their properties.

Is something in a real estate transaction complicating the process unnecessarily?
Are escalating insurance premiums driving away buyers?
Does the water quality in your area impact your sales?
What about the taxes coming out of your pocket or the pockets of your clients, are they too high?
These are just a few examples of the issues state lawmakers might consider each year during the annual legislative session.

Your involvement in GARD makes sure the voices of Realtors and homebuyers and sellers are heard. Because your voice, our voice, the REALTOR voice matters.

Make plans to join us for this eye-opening and life-changing experience. Check with your local board to learn more about travel options for delegations.

Transportation to Tallahassee: Florida Realtors assists with transportation costs. If your association brings a bus to GARD, Florida Realtors will reimburse the association up to $1,000.

Are you interested in taking an active role to advance the real estate industry and Florida Realtors? Then, please join us at our Mid-Winter Business Meetings. This annual Florida Realtors event focuses on association governance and public policy and inducts our new leadership for the year.

Participants and members at this annual business summit strive to advance the association’s initiatives through advocacy and committee involvement. Members take an active role to advance the real estate industry, public policy and the association.

A top highlight includes the Florida Realtors Real Estate Trends economic summit, where a panel of state and national experts offer market and economic insights for the coming year.

The event concludes with the Board of Directors meeting, where the association’s bylaws are updated to ensure the association's membership goals are met and keep the association on a path of success.

Entertainment provided during the event promotes the industry and its vitality among the Realtor network.

Because some MLSs are changing the way brokers do business it is more important than ever that all Realtors have all the tools and knowledge possible to do business successfully. The 2024 Leadership Team has approved hosting the 3-hour (CE-approved) course "Understanding Buyer Broker Agreements and How to Implement Them" via Zoom Video Conferencing throughout the year.

About the course
Course description: Have you ever felt like saying, “Buy from me or get out of my car.” You work with a buyer for days on end, drive them to every house they want to see, only to find out a week later that they used their Great Aunt Lucy, who has a real estate license, to buy a home? Loyalty seems to be at an all-time low. The internet helps buyers gain tons of information and we as licensees have to prove our worth and value even more today. Why should a buyer pick one agent to work with and be loyal? Is there a way a buyer can do that? We ask sellers to commit to one brokerage with an agreement so why don’t we ask buyers for the same commitment? Let’s find out how.

After taking this class students will be able to:

Explain the importance of working exclusively with a buyer
Determine which agreement is appropriate when
Understand how written agreements protect both the customer and the brokerage
Recognize what an exclusive representation means when working with a buyer
Comprehend what types of agency relationships are authorized with an exclusive buyer-broker agreement
Clarify to a buyer the importance of the agreement and how to present it
Appreciate the arbitration hearing process and how clear written agreements between the buyer and seller can reduce the confusion of procuring cause.

Held at the Jupiter Office (Palm Beach County)
1st & 3rd Wednesday’s at 8:30am, start with breakfast & networking at your JTHS Office (remember fresh Starbucks Coffee is always brewing).
At 9am, members showcase their homes on tour.
