NAR Letter to Chair Blackburn and Ranking Member Doyle Regarding Paid Prioritization

Issue Date: April 16, 2018


US HR 4682 - Open Internet Preservation Act

On April 16, 2018 NAR sent a letter to Chair Blackburn, Ranking Member Doyle, and cc'ing members on the House Committee on Energy and Commerce. The letter expresses NAR’s belief that open internet rules are necessary to support a wide range of common real estate business practices. These business practices rely on the Internet, which has improved the ability of real estate professionals to offer homebuyers and businesses the tools to make efficient, better-informed decisions when looking for a new home or commercial site. Chief among these critically important open internet rules is a prohibition on paid prioritization.
