A bigger and stronger platform
NAR NXT 2024 in Boston drew over 10,000 real estate professionals from across the U.S. and internationally, featuring nearly 300 exhibitors and 400 sessions across five venues. The conference provided a robust platform for education on pressing industry topics, including skyrocketing property insurance costs, just cause evictions, and affordable housing solutions. NAR Chief Economist Dr. Lawrence Yun delivered a cautiously optimistic economic forecast, predicting multiple interest rate cuts in the coming years while cautioning that mortgage rates would remain high without federal action to reduce the budget deficit. The event also showcased NAR's advocacy wins, including a 98% success rate for RPAC-supported candidates in the 2024 election cycle. A signature activation, the Enchanted Library, collected hundreds of member stories about helping clients achieve their 'happily ever after,' reinforcing the REALTOR® brand's consumer value proposition
