The Advocacy division of CTAR is designed to protect and enhance the quality of life of those living in the Lowcountry by creating a favorable relationship within the government and law making bodies.
CTAR regularly works with the Lowcountry’s elected representatives at the federal, state and local levels. Not sure who is representing you? Click here to find your elected officials in Charleston, Berkeley and Dorchester Counties. There are multiple ways to get involved in the Advocacy work at CTAR:
The Advocacy Committee helps monitor local, state, and national legislative issues that affect quality of life issues and the real estate industry. They discuss, debate and recommend positions based on Realtor® principles to the Board of Directors to be official CTAR public policy positions. The group typically meets the first Friday of the month at the CTAR offices. Please check the calendar for any cancellations or schedule changes. Join the Advocacy Committee today!

The Candidate Screening Committee convenes during election time to interview candidates running for local and state offices, including city council, county council, school board and state house and senate races. They use the CTAR rating system to educate other Realtor® members as to the candidate’s thoughts and beliefs on real estate issues. The committee is centered regionally to ensure Realtors® interested in certain areas participate in the interview process. Sign up for the Candidate Screening Committee here.
