This funder is an issues-mobilization political committee that primarily finances local and statewide California ballot campaigns defending property owners, opposing new taxes and rent controls, and backing law‑and‑order or pro‑business measures. Grants are targeted to campaign committees and advocacy groups (often small, geographically specific coalitions) as well as conservative legal and policy organizations that support limits on taxation and regulation. Their giving signals a consistent priority of protecting property-tax interests and resisting municipal tax/rent-control initiatives across multiple California cities.
Concentrated, transaction‑style political giving: large, high‑impact disbursements to ballot committees and many mid‑sized to small one‑off grants to local campaign coalitions. Mix of a few very large, marquee contributions (notably to statewide or coalition committees) and numerous targeted local grants; repeat support for conservative legal/policy groups but many single‑issue, geographically distributed payments.
California Association of Realtors Issues Mobilization Political Action Com has made a clear pattern of funding California ballot campaigns that affect property owners, housing costs, and local taxes. A single general-support grant of $10,000,000 to Homeownership for Families and Tax Savings for Seniors in Los Angeles stands out as the largest recent award, followed by a $3,000,000 grant to the same recipient in 2025. The committee’s recent giving also reaches local issue campaigns such as No on Measures Cc Dd and Ff Save Santa Ana From Constant Crime Devalued and No on Measure N Stop the South Tahoe Vacancy Tax. Across the record, the recipients are mostly campaign committees, neighborhood coalitions, and policy organizations organized around ballot measures rather than long-term service delivery. That mix points to an issues-mobilization funder that uses general support to back election-cycle advocacy on taxes, rent control, public safety, and property-rights positions in California cities and counties.
Property-tax and anti-tax campaigns are central to the committee’s giving. It gave $571,000 to No on Measures Cc Dd and Ff Save Santa Ana From Constant Crime Devalued, and $193,763 to No on Measure U Stop the Unaffordable Unnecessary & Unfair Tax Increase. Housing policy appears as another major lane: a $335,370 grant supported No on Measure N Stop the South Tahoe Vacancy Tax, while $49,900 went to Marin Residents Against Extra Rent Control in San Anselmo. The committee also backed public-safety and governance measures, including $200,000 to San Franciscans for Public Safety Supporting the Recall of Chesa Boudin and $123,000 to Committee to Fix San Francisco Government Yes on D No on E. A separate line of giving includes $175,000 to Pacific Legal Foundation, showing support for legal advocacy tied to property and civil-justice positions.
Typical grant sizes cluster around the middle of six figures: p25 is $29,500, median is $50,000, and p75 is $127,500. The recent record includes both very large general-support grants and many smaller ballot-measure awards around the $45,000 to $75,000 range. Grants recur to the same recipient across years in at least a few cases, including Homeownership for Families and Tax Savings for Seniors, Pacific Legal Foundation, and Civil Justice Association of California. The committee is a public charity with no program-related investments and does not fund individuals. Its giving appears as flexible general support rather than program-restricted funding.

Giving is entirely in the United States and entirely in California. By recipient location, Los Angeles, Sacramento, and San Rafael appear repeatedly, with additional grants landing in cities such as San Francisco, Chula Vista, Costa Mesa, Granite Bay, Hilmar, Greenbrae, Aliso Viejo, and Pasadena. Several grants support statewide or multi-city coalitions based in Sacramento, while others go to city-specific ballot committees in places like Santa Ana, South Tahoe, Chico, and San Bernardino. The recipient distribution is local, but the pattern reaches multiple California regions rather than one metro area only.
It funds California ballot campaigns and advocacy groups focused on property rights, local taxes, rent control, public safety, and pro-business or civil-justice positions. Recent grants include support for anti-tax committees, vacancy-tax opposition, recall efforts, and legal-policy organizations.
