Committee Overview
Committees are critical to the success of GCAAR’s members, and we deeply appreciate those who volunteer their time and professional expertise to the real estate community.
This committee's description and focus of work, as well as membership requirements and time commitment, can be found below.
NOTE: for 2027 committee service, GCAAR is waiving the GCAAR Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Champions requirement for the FIRST year of committee membership. In order to apply for a second year of committee service, members will need to become
GCAAR Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Champions (that is, to have completed At Home with Diversity (AHWD), Fairhaven and NAR’s Implicit-Bias training, and reported your completion of these items to GCAAR – learn more). This exemption does not apply to members who have previously applied to or served on a GCAAR committee, who must be Champions at the time of application.
