Government Affairs

Government Affairs is one of MORe’s core programs, along with our comprehensive Education and Professional Standards. Even a small change in legislation can bring big changes for all of us in the way we do business and in our rights as homeowners. Knowing about or influencing any changes, whether on the local, regional, or national levels, can make the difference between winning and losing. Our Government Affairs professionals make it their job to watch out for you and advocate for you and your clients’ best interests. Government Affairs is more than what happens somewhere else, it’s our lives and our business.
