NAHREP Celebrates 25 Years of Advancing Hispanic Homeownership and Economic Empowerment

The National Association of Hispanic Real Estate Professionals (NAHREP) is set to host its 2025 Homeownership and Housing Policy Conference in Washington, D.C. from March 24-26, 2025. This landmark event, sponsored by Chase, marks NAHREP's 25th anniversary and promises to be a pivotal gathering for industry leaders, policymakers, and advocates dedicated to advancing Hispanic homeownership and economic prosperity.

Conference Highlights

Day 1: Hispanic Homeownership and Industry Insights

The conference kicks off with a Keynote Luncheon featuring top government and industry leaders. The first general session will focus on the state of Hispanic homeownership, including the release of the 2024 State of Hispanic Homeownership Report. This comprehensive analysis will shed light on the latest data, challenges, and opportunities shaping Latino homeownership in the U.S.

Day 2: Innovation and Inclusive Growth

The second day delves into resilience and innovation in real estate and lending. Sessions will explore:

  • Building successful business cultures in a rapidly evolving environment
  • The future of mortgage lending
  • Understanding the new economics of real estate

Later sessions will address housing challenges and foster inclusive growth, with discussions on:

  • Solutions for the Hispanic community's housing supply shortage
  • Latino leadership in real estate from entry-level to C-suite positions
  • Empowering Latinos through initiatives like the Language Access Program

The day concludes with the Presidential Installation Gala, where Oralia Herrera will be installed as the 2025 National President.

Day 3: Policy Solutions and Workforce Development

The final day focuses on policy solutions for housing affordability and workforce development. Key topics include:

  • NAHREP's policy priorities for 2025
  • Immigration reform to meet industry labor demands
  • Affordable housing solutions

Hosting this conference in Washington, D.C. during NAHREP's 25th anniversary year is particularly significant. It underscores the organization's commitment to influencing national policy and advocating for sustainable Hispanic homeownership. With Latinos driving homeownership growth in the U.S., their economic advancement is crucial for the nation's overall prosperity.

The conference will address critical issues such as:

  • Increasing housing supply to meet growing demand
  • Expanding access to capital and mortgage products
  • Developing the workforce through immigration reform
  • Promoting financial literacy and wealth-building strategies

By bringing together industry leaders, policymakers, and advocates, NAHREP aims to create actionable solutions that will not only benefit the Hispanic community but also contribute to the broader economic growth of the country. As the Hispanic homeownership rate reaches a 10-year high of 49.5%, representing over 9.5 million households, the potential for wealth creation and economic impact is immense.

This conference serves as a platform to shape policies, share innovative practices, and foster collaborations that will drive sustainable homeownership and economic opportunities for Latinos. As NAHREP celebrates its 25-year legacy, it continues to play a pivotal role in ensuring that the Hispanic community's growing influence in the housing market translates into lasting economic prosperity for families and communities across the nation.
