Klamath County Association Of Realtors

The Klamath County Association of REALTORS (KCAR) is a non-profit organization of real estate professionals serving Klamath County. With over 230 members, we are the voice of real estate in Klamath County. We are committed to promoting and protecting the interests of our members and the real estate industry. Our association is dedicated to upholding the highest standards in ethics, advised by the National Association of REALTORS (NAR). NAR is America's largest trade organization, representing over 1 million members involved in all aspects of the residential and commercial real estate industries.

Our Mission/Vision

Klamath County Association of REALTORS is the trusted source for all things real estate, advocating for our members and our communities while promoting professionalism and private property rights. Our mission is to provide our members with the resources and support they need to succeed in the real estate industry. We strive to promote and maintain high ethical standards in the industry and to advocate for our members and the communities we serve.

Government Affairs

The Klamath County Association of REALTORS maintains a government affairs program with full-time staff to ensure that the real estate industry in Klamath County is represented with local and regional governments. We advocate for the industry by participating in all facets of the policy-making process, including representing the industry on various committees and stakeholder panels, meeting with local government staff and elected officials on important issues, and providing testimony before city and county governments. Government affairs is an essential part of virtually all trade associations and other nonprofits engaged in public policy advocacy. It is almost always one leg of the "three-legged stool" that forms the basis of most associations, along with either education/professional development, networking, or ethics/standards. All REALTORS are represented at the local, state, and national levels by their respective associations and the National Association of REALTORS. That representation is vitally important because the practice of real estate is directly and indirectly impacted by public policy making at all levels of government, most obviously by state regulation of licensing standards. The real estate industry views a robust government affairs program as essential to ensuring that private property rights are protected and that a free market in residential and commercial property sales can thrive.

Professional Development and Networking

KCAR offers a wide range of professional development and networking opportunities for our members. We provide regular educational seminars, workshops, and events to help our members stay current with the latest industry trends and best practices. Our association also offers numerous committees and volunteer opportunities for members to get involved and network with other real estate professionals.

Ethics and Standards

KCAR adheres to the highest standards in ethics, advised by the National Association of REALTORS (NAR). We are committed to upholding the NAR Code of Ethics and promoting professionalism in the real estate industry. Our association provides regular training and resources to help our members understand and comply with ethical standards.
