The Tri-City Association of Realtors is a professional trade organization whose members are licensed real estate brokers located primarily in the greater Tri-City (Kennewick, Pasco, Richland, West Richland) area. Tri-City Association of Realtors was founded as the TriCity Board of Realtors in 1946. Today, TCAR is the largest trade association in the TriCities with more than 650 Realtors from more than 70 firms belonging to our Association. In addition we have more than 40 Affiliate members (representatives from other real estate related professions such as title companies, lenders, home inspectors, etc.) We have earned the reputation as the voice for real estate for southeastern Washington state. Our membership is voluntary and is open to active real estate licensees in the state of Washington. In order to be a member, the licensee must be affiliated with a Designated Broker who holds Realtor membership. The TriCity Association of Realtors’ mission is to support all segments of its membership by providing and promoting programs, services and exchange of information and ideas which will enhance the member’s freedom and ability to conduct their individual business successfully with integrity and competency; and through collective action promote the extension and preservation of real property rights. Today, members of our Association are active in many areas throughout our community including a wide variety of voluntary boards, commissions, charity foundations, and also devote thousands of hours to help enhance the quality of life in the TriCities.
