Taste of Asia: A Leadership Luncheon on Homeownership, Wealth & Our Community’s Future

AREAA Charlotte Metro, in partnership with the Canopy Realtor® Association, invites you to join us for an exclusive and timely luncheon—Taste of Asia—featuring national leadership, groundbreaking research, and a powerful community dialogue.

This year, AREAA National partnered with the Urban Institute to produce a landmark report:
AANHPI Homeownership and Wealth-Building Trajectories: From Accumulation and Preservation to Intergenerational Transfer over the Life Course.

This research takes a deep look at how Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander (AANHPI) communities build, sustain, and transfer wealth through homeownership—and where barriers still exist. It moves beyond surface-level statistics to examine long-term financial mobility, generational impact, and policy implications. What do these wealth-building trends mean for our local housing market?

• How can we strengthen sustainable homeownership in the AANHPI community?

• What role should Realtors®, lenders, and policymakers play?

• How do we ensure opportunity is not only created—but preserved and passed on?

This is more than a luncheon. It is a strategic conversation about the future of homeownership and wealth in our region.

Who Should Attend:

• Realtors® and real estate professionals

• Community and business leaders

• Elected officials and policymakers

• Lenders and housing advocates

• Representatives of the AANHPI community

• Anyone invested in the future of housing and economic mobility in Charlotte

Charlotte is one of the fastest-growing and most diverse regions in the country. The conversations we have now will shape access, opportunity, and generational wealth for decades to come.

Join us for meaningful dialogue, powerful insights, and an opportunity to be part of the solution—while celebrating culture, community, and connection at Taste of Asia.

Seats will be limited. We encourage early registration.
