for housing and real estate professionals that serve this dynamic
market.
Journalist Richard Lui, a news

The breakout sessions that follow are devoted to understanding the
many different areas in which people can be biased in the Asian
American community and beyond, making this event relevant for
anyone working in the industry.
RE/MAX Senior Vice President of Industry Relations and Global
Growth & Development Mike Reagan will participate in
the Closing General Session and introduce speaker, Dave Uejio, Acting Director of the Consumer
Financial Protection Bureau, who was appointed by President
Biden.
"Our alliances with organizations such as AREAA are critical to
fulfilling the RE/MAX mission to reduce barriers and build pathways
to homeownership for all," Reagan said. "The AAPI population is
growing in many communities across the country. Our work with AREAA
empowers agents to not only serve as trusted guides in real estate,
but also as allies in the unique issues facing the AAPI
community."
He continued, "At RE/MAX, we lead with compassion. Recent events
have shown that now, more than ever, the AAPI community needs our
support. We're eager to learn how we can help and make a positive
difference."
For five consecutive years, RE/MAX has been a national sponsor
of AREAA. Backing of the group ranges from supporting their
financial mission, participating in education opportunities, event
sponsorship, the participation of RE/MAX affiliates on AREAA's
