Mortgage Broker, Real Estate Broker, & CEO
CEO & Servant Leader
What are the three most important priorities or initiatives that RESO should pursue during the next two years?
- Bringing more awareness to common data dictionary to brokers, tech providers, and MLS boards.
- Making sure all MLS boards have uniform feeds with uniform data fields being sent through to vendors or brokers. Every MLS Board should have 2-3 feeds instead of random jargon (IDX, Full Feed, Broker Feed, Vendor Feed, with sold without sold). As a broker and tech provider there are so many different fields, names, type of feeds. The industry needs to have a uniform set of rules directed by RESO
- Making it looser for Brokers and Vendors to get contracts from MLS boards at scale. I understand its in the MLS right to pick and choose but this is not correct. Technology from a broker and Vendor standpoint is already difficult as is, we don’t need more kickback from a MLS board with hoops and obstacles to jump through. Have many ideas to help in juncture.
How do you see your contributions as a board member being utilized for realizing these priorities?
As a Real Estate Broker, Mortgage Broker, and Tech Vendor I can bring in my expertise from all sides of the table that MLS side of the business is not accustomed to. I really want this industry to have more players tackling all the low hanging fruit and I would love to be a contributor to the cause.
