Do real estate and politics mix? I don't know, but politics can drastically affect our real estate careers. If you're not paying attention to politics your real estate, and even your real estate career can be devastated!
So what to do? Not everyone is cut out for running for office, not everyone has any desire to be a politician. But, you can have a say, politicians pay attention to noise, the squeaky wheel gets the grease!
NAR and your local Real Estate board will usually notify you of pending legislation that affects your industry. Pay attention, send letters, call your representatives, send emails. You do have a say and you do have a voice.
As a licensed real estate professional you are part of the process, if you remain silent, you allow circumstances to guide you.
Sometimes we are just overwhelmed by the sheer magnitude of bills and onslaught of political rhetoric. You must get involved if you are going to effect change, if you are going to protect your livelyhood.
Vote for me, Ben Edsall, 17th Ward Committeeman, Jackson County, MO. Kansas City. I am not ashamed of my convictions, I am not afraid of my party affiliation I am a conservative, I am a Republican!
God Bless America! God protect our heroic troops, God protect us!
Ben Edsall.
