REBNY was created in 1896 as the state’s first real estate trade association. It works on behalf of the mutual interests of its members by promoting public and industry policies. The organization frequently speaks before government bodies with the primary goals of expanding New York’s economy, encouraging the development and renovation of commercial and residential property, enhancing the city’s appeal to investors and residents and facilitating property management.

The REBNY Foundation (a 501c-3 organization) was founded in 1985 to support and encourage the real estate industry’s generous tradition of philanthropy and volunteerism. Substantial funds have been raised to provide relief for the victims of natural disasters, as well as groups that provide housing and services to New York’s neediest population.
