40. 2012 Proposed Augmentations

41. 2012 Proposed Augmentations (Approved) Funded by Dues

42. Local Forms Member Legal Services Working with local associations and local standard forms/risk management committees, this pilot program provides funding to digitize local forms for inclusion in zipForms®. At least one market area will be selected from the north and one from the south with the goal of obtaining existing, or creating new forms that comply with local laws and disclosure requirements and put these forms into the zipForms® library. This pilot program will enable C.A.R. to determine the scalability of the effort as well as measure support for expanding the program beyond the initial pilot. The program also allows for ongoing monitoring of local activity to ensure the forms stay current. (Cost: $35,600)

43. REALTOR® Rating Pilot Program Strategic Planning and Finance This augmentation continues the initiative and pilot program that asks clients to rate their REALTOR® through the MLS interface. In Northern California the pilot is a partnership between C.A.R., MLS Listings Inc., and Quality Service Certified (QSC). This augmentation provides funding to continue the program through the end of 2012, providing additional time for implementation and adoption. It also expands the pilot to include other MLS’s and/or regional brokerages to ensure critical mass in terms of participants and returned surveys. (Cost: $78,220)

44. REALTOR® Rating 360 Strategic Planning and Finance REALTOR® Rating 360 -- This program provides for a voluntary peer-to-peer rating system to be made available to California REALTORS® through car.org. It will also permit members to rate ancillary service providers. Utilizing an “off the shelf” rating template (www.rating- system.com), this program will enable members to rate other REALTORS® and service providers involved in a transaction after the close of escrow. Participants would be rated on five categories: helpfulness; knowledge; speed of communications; professionalism and an overall rating. Participation is voluntary and ratings will not be displayed until directed by the member. (Cost: $15,400)

45. NAR Variable Dues Formula Membership This program will educate local associations in California on the NAR dues formula policy and provide the local AORs with tools for compliance. The disparity between the number of REALTOR® members and agent counts is significant throughout the state. In an effort to promote a full understanding of the Dues Formula and ensure consistent application of its requirements, this program will work closely with the 113 local AOR’s in California to both educate the members and enforce this long-standing structure. An additional staff person will be hired to manage this effort which is projected to result in an increase of 2,000 members. (Net Revenue: $272,800)

Electoral Services with in-house capabilities and external contractors will provide C.A.R. an opportunity to save consulting costs and create a potential new sources of revenue. (Cost: $39,700)

48. CREPAC: Local Candidates Field Governmental Affairs This program will assist local AORs with the political development of local level candidates and activities, and establish a process for development of future state legislative candidates. It manages the activities of three field staff that will work with the local Associations to recruit local REALTORS® interested in public office and generally assists in involving members in local campaigns and elections. This program is funded 100% from the RAA (REALTOR® Action Assessment) and reflects the purpose and spirit of the fund to increase REALTOR® effectiveness in the political arena at all levels of government. (Cost: $372,100 - funded from RAA)
