Key Contact Boot Camp

Description

Real estate doesn’t just happen in transactions—it’s shaped every day by decisions made at the local level.

That’s why we’re launching the TCRA Key Contact Program—a new initiative designed to ensure REALTORS® have a consistent, informed, and respected voice with local elected officials.

As a Key Contact, you’ll build relationships with decision-makers in Thurston County and help ensure they understand how policies impact homeownership, housing affordability, and our industry.

What Does a Key Contact Do?

• Serve as a direct connection between REALTORS® and local elected officials
• Share real-world insight on how proposed policies affect buyers, sellers, and housing supply
• Build professional, ongoing relationships with city and county leaders
• Help elevate the REALTOR® voice where it matters most—before decisions are made

No Experience Necessary—We’ll Train You

We’re hosting a Key Contact Bootcamp to get you started with everything you need to feel confident and prepared.
