RE/MAX CEO Adam Contos to Address Impact of COVID-19 on Hispanic Homeownership During NAHREP National Convention Opening General Session
RE/MAX continues commitment to growing Hispanic homeownership in collaboration with the National Association of Hispanic Real Estate Professionals

DENVER, April 12, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Tomorrow, RE/MAX Holdings CEO Adam Contos will participate in the National Association of Hispanic Real Estate Professionals (NAHREP) 2021 National Convention & Housing Policy Summit's Opening General Session from 12:20-12:50 p.m. EDT. To register to view the session please click here and enter complimentary code NC21PRESS.

"The Latino Factor: The Key to Homeownership Growth in America" panel, moderated by 2021 NAHREP President Sara Rodriguez will address how Latinos remain the fastest growing group of homeowners in the U.S. despite receiving a disproportionately large share of the COVID-19 pandemic's devastating financial impact. Contos will join other real estate CEOs to discuss what the industry should learn from 2020 and how the Latino factor will drive the market going forward.

"Hispanics are generally a young population and have been the only demographic to steadily increase their homeownership rate year after year," said Contos. "They are the fastest-growing population and a driving force behind much of our economy so the opportunities for growth in the housing sector are theirs for the taking. RE/MAX agents are the best in the business at helping people achieve their homebuying and selling dreams and can expertly navigate the prevalent homeownership barriers Hispanics often face to make their dreams become a reality."

NAHREP is a purpose-driven organization propelled by a combination of entrepreneurial spirit, cultural heritage and the advocacy of its members, whose mission is to advance sustainable Hispanic homeownership. For the past six years, RE/MAX has supported the group through education, event sponsorship, the participation of RE/MAX affiliates on NAHREP regional leadership teams and by co-sponsoring the 2020 English-Spanish Glossary of Real Estate terms with NAHREP.

"It's so important for RE/MAX agents to connect with the entire community," says Mike Reagan, RE/MAX Senior Vice President of Industry Relations and Global Growth & Development. "One of the wonderful things about this partnership is that our brokers embrace all the demographics in their community and tune into what is taking place in their particular market."
