NVAR's "Face of Foreclosure" Report Earns National Honor
The Nevada Association of REALTORS®
(NVAR) and its "Face of Foreclosure" report were honored this week with a
bronze award in the educational program category in Association TRENDS’
2011 All-Media Contest. NVAR's report on foreclosure issues facing
Nevada homeowners was one of more than 450 entries in the association
publications contest.
NVAR President Mike Young called it "a
significant honor for NVAR. It's especially rewarding to see a leading
national source recognize what we believe has been a landmark report on
the foreclosure issue facing our state, our homeowners, our economy and
our quality of life. NVAR's staff, leadership and research partners put a
lot of good work into this."
In fact, Young said NVAR is looking forward to preparing a similar report on foreclosures and related issues in 2012.
NVAR's
most recent "Face of Foreclosure" report was released in early 2011. In
addition to being referenced in dozens of news stories locally and
nationally throughout the year, he said the report influenced state laws
and helped to educate Nevada REALTORS® and other policy makers and
industry leaders.
