Realtor's Care Day


With the economy in shambles and more and more people struggling to pay for home repairs, the Charlotte Regional Realtor Association decided to take action.  On April 24, 600 Realtors put aside their usual ambition of selling homes and volunteered to help repair houses for low income families, as well as some elderly and disabled homeowners.

The event was known as Realtors Care Day.  While the sun tested everyone’s strength, these Realtors were determined to help those in need.  Over 30 homeowners were helped out by mainly Realtors, but also professionals such as builders, developers, painters, roofers, and home inspectors.  Junk Rescue was on scene and assisted where ever possible in moving materials to and from sites.

If you would like to help  next year or would like to know more about the event, please contact the Housing Opportunity Foundation at crrafoundation@carolinahome.com.
