Spring is one of the busiest—and most rewarding—times of year in real estate.
Between family trips, holiday travel, out-of-town buyers, relocation visits, and packed showing schedules, you may be juggling personal plans and business logistics at the same time.
That’s why your NAR Travel & Automotive benefits can be especially useful this time of year.
Through NAR REALTOR Benefits®, you have access to rental car offers from Avis, Budget, Hertz, and SIXT. This is a practical benefit you can use for more than just business travel.
Use Your Benefits for the Time Off You’ve Earned
In real estate, your schedule rarely looks like everyone else’s.
You’re often working evenings, weekends, and holidays. So when personal time opens up, it matters. Whether you’re planning a spring break trip with your family or taking a quick weekend getaway, your rental car benefits can help you stretch your travel budget and simplify the logistics.
A rental car discount can help you:
- save on transportation costs
- avoid adding miles to your personal vehicle
- choose a vehicle that fits your trip
- stay flexible if plans change
Spring travel can get expensive fast, especially when plans shift. Having access to rental offers through trusted brands gives you another way to keep costs manageable while protecting your time off.
Ways to use your rental car benefits this spring:
- Family trips: Rent a larger vehicle for comfort, luggage, and gear.
- Holiday visits: Fly in and use a rental car to move on your own schedule.
- Weekend getaways: Use member savings to make short trips more affordable.
- Road trips: Rent instead of putting wear and tear on your own vehicle.
You work hard for your time off. This is one benefit that can help you enjoy it a little more.
Use Rental Cars to Support Clients and Elevate the Experience During the Spring Rush
Spring isn’t just vacation season—it’s one of the busiest seasons for your business. Buyers are more active, listings increase, and out-of-town clients often travel in for short, packed visits.
During those busy weeks, rental cars can help you support clients and keep things moving.
Help out-of-town and relocation clients
If clients are flying in for showings, a rental car can make their visit easier—especially if they’re seeing multiple areas in a short amount of time. Sharing available rental savings through your NAR benefits can be a helpful touch that improves the overall experience.
Elevate select listing experiences
For some higher-end listings, a premium rental vehicle can support the presentation of a broker's open house, luxury showing, or content shoot. When used thoughtfully, it can reinforce the lifestyle story of the property.
Stay flexible when plans change
A rental car can help when:
- your vehicle is in the shop
- you need a larger vehicle for signs/materials
- you’re covering a larger area than usual
- you need short-term transportation for a multiday client schedule
When your calendar is full, flexibility matters. A rental can help you keep appointments moving without missing a beat.
Add value beyond the transaction
Some NAR partners provide client-facing discounts and shareable materials that you can use. It’s a simple way to be helpful during a stressful time and add value beyond the showing itself.
Make This Benefit Work for You This Spring
Your NAR rental car benefits are about more than just getting a discount. They can help you:
- save on personal travel
- support clients with practical travel solutions
- stay flexible during a busy season
- improve experiences for relocation and select listings
Spring moves fast. The more you can simplify travel, the easier it is to protect your time, energy, and budget.
