Fairhaven is an interactive simulation created by the National Association of REALTORS® in partnership with Ernst & Young to educate Realtors® on real-life discrimination problems impacting the U.S. real estate market.

Fairhaven uses storytelling through the perspectives of clients and Realtors® to promote equity in the real estate industry. According to NAR, “the platform takes real estate professionals to the fictional town of Fairhaven, where agents work to close four deals while confronting situations in which discrimination is a factor.”

NAR is a leader in supporting fair housing initiatives and NVAR works diligently to promote Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. Through these efforts NVAR and NAR have made Fairhaven available to all members at no cost.
