The Permian Basin Board of REALTORS® is proudly hosting a special Local Candidate Forum featuring candidates for Mayor and City Council. This event will give members and the community an opportunity to hear directly from those running for local office, ask thoughtful questions, and better understand where each candidate stands on issues that impact the Midland community, housing, and real estate.

Purpose

PBBOR remains committed to being the Voice of Real Estate in the Permian Basin. By convening local candidates in one room, we will provide a first-hand look at the leadership vision shaping Midland’s future—particularly around housing, infrastructure, and community growth.

Event Highlights

• Candidate Presentations: Each candidate will be given the opportunity to address attendees, share their platform, and outline their priorities for Midland’s future.

• Audience Q&A: Members will ask questions touching on real estate, economic growth, housing affordability, and quality-of-life issues.

• Engagement & Transparency: The format ensures fairness, transparency, and accessibility, allowing candidates to connect directly with REALTORS® and community stakeholders.

• Recorded for Reach: For members unable to attend in person, the session will be recorded and will be shared digitally so every voice can stay informed.

Why It Matters

Housing and community development are at the center of Midland’s future. REALTORS® are not only market experts—they’re also advocates for strong communities. By hosting this event, PBBOR will help:

• Give our members a voice in local decision-making
