WHEREAS, Throughout its history, the State of Texas has |
|
|
maintained a commitment to the principle of private property |
|
|
rights, and since its creation in 1920, the Texas Association of |
|
|
REALTORS and its members have supported this vital principle; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Each day, Texas REALTORS provide valuable |
|
|
professional services that enable their fellow Texans to buy, sell, |
|
|
lease, develop, and manage residential and commercial real estate |
|
|
in a knowledgeable and confident manner, while helping to preserve |
|
|
the free enterprise system and the right to own real property; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, Over the years, Texas REALTORS have worked |
|
|
diligently within the regulatory process to promote and raise the |
|
|
caliber of their business practices, and the term "REALTOR" has |
|
|
come to symbolize competence, integrity, and a high regard for |
|
|
ethics; and |
|
|
WHEREAS, The more than 110,000 members of the Texas |
|
|
Association of REALTORS have consistently advocated for |
|
|
responsible government as well as the entrepreneurial spirit that |
|
|
is the backbone of our state's economy, and its members are indeed |
|
|
worthy of special recognition at this time; now, therefore, be it |
|
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 85th Texas |
|
|
Legislature hereby recognize April 4, 2017, as REALTOR Appreciation |
|
|
Day at the State Capitol and extend to the visiting members of the |
|
|
association sincere best wishes for an informative and enjoyable |
|
|
stay in Austin; and, be it further |
|
|
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be |
|
|
prepared for the Texas Association of REALTORS as an expression of |
|
|
high regard by the Texas House of Representatives. |
