The British Columbia housing policy landscape is constantly changing, and the BC Real Estate Association's (BCREA) Government Relations department is adapting right along with it.

On Thursday, March 27, 2025, BCREA launched Government Relations Quarterly (GRQ), a quarterly newsletter to be sent directly to REALTORS®. 

This new newsletter is a one-stop shop for all things BCREA Advocacy and Government Relations, bringing light to BCREA’s stance on the biggest housing policy issues and the conversations the Association is having with government, in addition to providing space for practice-related advocacy efforts. 

The inaugural issue of GRQ featured stories on the federal housing policy landscape, the Foreign Buyer Ban and its effect on BC tourist destinations, and BCREA’s recent successful Government Liaison Days conference. You can check out the full issue in the newsletter archive here.

How to Receive BCREA’s Advocacy and Government Relations Newsletters 

The new GRQ newsletter is complementary to but different from BCREA’s Advocacy Update, which is sent to subscribers every two weeks. If you don’t already receive it, you can subscribe to Advocacy Update here. 

REALTORS® do not need to subscribe to GRQ, as they will be automatically included. 

Not a REALTOR®? You can subscribe here.
