New Ad Campaign Reinforces the Importance of REALTORS®
In April, NAR will launch its 2025 ad campaign highlighting WHY REALTORS® matter. This has never been so important with real estate brands driving more of the transaction in-app and a DIY culture attracting first time home buyers. The new ads aim to change the use of a real estate pro as a burdensome cost to be avoided, to an essential investment to be embraced.
There are two phases of the campaign, both use emotional storytelling to show how we protect consumers by doing ‘Right by you’. Phase 1, ‘Don’t DIY’ highlights the pitfalls of overconfidence and ignorance, with Phase 2 coming later in April.
