Racism is real 

in the Real Estate Community




Realtors of color say they often experience racial profiling from the public-at-large and even among fellow Realtors. In an effort to educate and raise awareness of this all-too-prevalent problem, the Buffalo Niagara Association of Realtors (BNAR) has launched a series of anti-discrimination videos.


The BNAR hosted a press January 1, 2023 to unveil the 
professionally-produced videos; they were presented to real estate agents and a host of public officials, saying they are the first in the country to create anti-discrimination videos of this kind.
