Corporate Ally Program

The Corporate Ally Program (CAP) is an advocacy partnership between corporate entities and the REALTORS® Political Action Committee (RPAC) that gives our real estate business partners the ability to invest corporate dollars to strengthen the industry and support issue campaigns. Funds are invested in political advocacy and issue campaigns at the local, state, and federal levels in order to promote an environment conducive to buying, selling, and owning real estate.

As part of the program, East Tennessee REALTORS® provides numerous benefits at each Corporate Ally level. Read below to learn more about the benefits provided this year. 

Levels

East Tennessee REALTORS® Corporate Ally Levels are as follows: 

  • Silver: $1,500
  • Crystal: $2,500
  • Golden: $5,000

To become a Corporate Ally, fill out the voluntary invoice form linked below and send it to Catrin at catrin@etnrealtors.com.

Once you have submitted your paperwork to Catrin, she will follow up with further information. 

Benefits
