About Our Chapter
Chartered in 1995, as a commercial overlay board, the New York State Commercial Association of REALTORS® is a specialty local board of REALTORS® with statewide jurisdiction. NYSCAR was formed by commercial practitioners who had a vision of a board of REALTORS® dedicated specifically to commercial issues. In succeeding years, NYSCAR has implemented that vision by creating opportunities for members to enhance their professional education, to network with colleagues across the state, and to market commercial property in statewide forums.
Membership in the New York State Commercial Association of REALTORS®, Inc. is an investment in your career and your profession. The association gives members a key for successful sales through increased professional contacts, advanced continuing education courses and much more.
The Association is governed by a Board of Governors with representation from constituent groups across the state. There are seven active NYSCAR chapters throughout the state, including Greater Capital, Hudson Valley, New York City / Long Island, Rochester Area, Western New York, Southern Tier, and Syracuse. One of the most visible and most successful of NYSCAR’s endeavors has been the development of the annual commercial real estate conference held in the month June, jointly sponsored by the CCIM, SIOR and the Society of Exchange Counselors (SEC). This premier event has grown to a 3-day program packed with challenging and topical continuing education courses, one full day of marketing session facilitated by the SEC, a full-day CCIM course, plus various networking events including a keynote reception.
