For uniting many licensed professionals and registered real estate practitioners in the country, the National Real Estate Association has claimed that they have already reigned supreme in the industry in time for their upcoming anniversary revelry.

In a statement on Friday, Ruth Marie C Atienza, NREA National President claimed that NREA was the only real estate group considered a one-stop trade organization "for consolidating licensed professionals and registered real estate practitioners in the Philippines."

"By its name and mission, NREA acts as a uniting group and chief advocacy platform for most real estate practitioners across the spectrum of the country's real estate service," Atienza pointed out.

NREA is also a staunch supporter of the Marcos Administration's Pambansang Pabahay Para sa Pilipino program or 4PH, an ambitious housing project aimed to produce six million houses for Filipinos during the tenure of President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.

Marcos Jr. last July 2023 issued Executive Order No. 34, declaring the 4PH as a flagship program of the government and directed all government agencies to come up with an inventory of suitable lands for the program.

For her part, NREA National Chairperson Imelda Magtoto said that NREA will celebrate this milestone in time for their 32nd Founding Anniversary which will start this 17 October.
